Advice to get a job? Been trying for 2months... AAT 3.
I finished AAT 3, did Xero level 2 advisor and payroll specialist courses, applied to 10s of jobs listed in the last 2 months, which I felt I met most requirements for, except for like 70-80% asking for YEARS of experience? For entry-level roles? I applied for anything relating to accounting, even admin jobs with accounts responsibilities. Some even said you dont need AAT etc but can be motivated/willing to study it or have some basic bookkeeping knowledge etc and still not even a single reply back form them.
I just had my 20th birthday and still live with my parents, so I don't mind a low salary. Based in the East Midlands. I need to get a job this month im tired of sitting at home doing nothing, I plan to go onto CIMA after this. AAT 3 was just to get an entry-level job. I need to save some cash before I start CIMA so need a job now to start saving cash and start studying for CIMA in next 2-3months. I planned to have already started CIMA by now but couldn't find a job this whole time.
I can show my CV if anyone wants to see it? I feel its a decent CV only lacks accounting experience, ive worked in retail at TK Maxx while studying for a levels and then a warehouse for a few months, was planning to go Uni but decided on AAT 3 then onto CIMA instead..
