If you want a fun accounting job, you should get designated. Doors open when you have those letters (CA, CGA, CMA).

First you should be honest with yourself and what type of work you think you will enjoy. AR/AP is very repetitive and some find it easy (relaxing, no stress) while others find it mind numbingly boring. Life is too short, try to find a job you will enjoy.

If you decide to pursue a designation then you will have to work your way through the program (any program). Parts of it will be hard and not fun, but as I said before, with a designation the jobs are more fun and easier to find.

I am a CA and 90% of my job is negotiations, due-diligence, forecasts, planning and setting company accounting policies etc. I love my job!
