&lt;p&gt;Accounting is dull. Dull! Dull! In a culture where a few moments of boredom can seem like torture, there are few professions as plain, as boring, as grotesque as accounting, right? &lt;img class=&quot;embeddedObject&quot; style=&quot;float: left;&quot; src=&quot;http://content.screencast.com/users/dlimm/folders/Jing/media/9a087dd6-7469-41f0-8581-cca436c0bdf6/Calculator.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;247&quot; height=&quot;194&quot;&gt;To most people, probably yes, but MBA students, well, they really want to work at accounting firms! As long as they&#39;re at one of the &quot;Big Four.&quot; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In a survey that asked 130,000 MBA students to name their ideal employers, ranking the top 50, KPMP, Ernst &amp;amp; Young, PWC, and Deloitte came out just behind Google, which, big surprise, retained the top spot for the second year in a row.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;From the recent GMAC report on MBA application trends (PDF file), we learned that among programs applications for master&#39;s in accounting experienced the highest increase, as well as needing some of the least active recruitment. So, accounting is attractive now. It won&#39;t be long before we see features on the 50 Most Beautiful Accountants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;object style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; width=&quot;480&quot; height=&quot;385&quot; data=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/v/XMOmB1q8W4Y?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;data&quot; value=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/v/XMOmB1q8W4Y?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowscriptaccess&quot; value=&quot;always&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;src&quot; value=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/v/XMOmB1q8W4Y?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowfullscreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
