With help of the Managed Academic Path to Success (MAPS) coordinator at Mercer Business, I identified and accepted an internship opportunity at Chick-fil-A. Read More.

My advice to Mercer students is to study what interests you, and seek out what drives you. Be grounded, but don't be afraid to branch out and discover those topics that have your interest. College offers a safe environment to test your limits and challenge your preconceptions. Push your comfort limits. Read More.

I knew I wanted to be in a career that would go hand-in-hand with my desire to learn – I love to learn, and would be a professional student if I could. While the fundamentals of accounting remain the same, laws in tax are constantly evolving – there is always something new to learn about in tax accounting. Read More.

Accounting
As a student at Mercer, I knew I was interested in accounting, but I didn't appreciate the breadth of career options that were available in the field. I distinctly remember an accounting professor at Mercer Business who went on leave to testify as an expert witness in a trial. This intrigued me, because it opened my eyes to the extent of what a person can do with an education in accounting. Read More.

Jeffrey Williamson '00
Major in Economics, Minors in Accounting & English
The best advice I can give is to do something that I did not do – for students to intern or work with a company in their fields of study at some point during their four years as an undergraduate. I went straight through with a major and double minor. However, if I was to do it again, I would intern at an accounting firm to gain experience. Read More.
