Seeking Advice on Courses for Financial Accounting Internship at Big4

Hello everyone,

I'm currently in my 3rd semester studying in Germany, and I previously took a Financial Accounting course in my 1st semester. I'm planning to apply for a working student job in Financial Accounting at one of the Big4 firms, and I want to enhance my knowledge and skills before applying.

I'm looking for a course or certificate that could boost my application. However, I don't want to spend a lot of money on it. I've been considering the WSO Accounting course, and it seems interesting, but I'm open to other suggestions.

Could you recommend any affordable courses or certifications that would be beneficial for this career path? Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!
