I really need some knowledge I guess you could say. I really want to go into accounting and want to apply for a position of accountancy technician asap, but my problem is I don't know the difference between the different types: actuarial, assurance, advisory, cross line of service and tax. If someone could fill me in and tell me a little bit about each one, or just any help would be appreciated. I've tried googling but it failed.<BR>Thanks, Krissy.
