Which country are you based in/which country are you doing your degree in?

Which country do you intend to work in? If you are based in the US or Canada, include your province or state

Which specific role in finance do you intend to get? Do not say any, because there are 20+ different roles to choose from all with different requirements, even though the industry doesn't employ that many people relatively speaking

Big company industry positions. These again tend not to have a preference for accounting degrees although some prefer business or numerate courses - so you are fine here.
