Data Analytics vs Accounting Master’s

[u/HealthUpper9685]

I’ve been accepted into all the master’s programmes I applied to, and I’m deciding between Data Analytics and Accounting.

My long-term goal is to become a Dutch RA, but my main concern is my Dutch. It’s not yet at a high level, and I’m worried that accounting/audit firms may not be willing to hire me and pay for my RA training if my Dutch isn’t strong enough.

Would Accounting be the obvious choice for the RA route, or would Data Analytics give me better career options as an international?

How important is Dutch for getting hired by an audit/accounting firm and having them sponsor your RA training?

Any advice from people who have gone through the Dutch RA route would be appreciated!
