🌹 ABOUT ME
A Thai living in the UK.
I work as an accountant but also consider myself a full-time learner. I moved to London 5 years ago having 2 suitcases to my name to start a career in accounting, earning minimum salary. As a family, we're now proud home owners, got rid of £20k debt and managed to increase my salary by four-fold! I enjoy conversations around money, career, how to navigate life as a millennial.

I agree 100%. I have degree in accounting and I was shocked when one of the accounting agencies in UK asked me to do AAT or ACCA in order to find a job in accounting field

Hello! I would say for excel, look into Microsoft certification. A lot of colleges do evening classes and usually can be done in a month or two. You sit an exam and get a certificate from Microsoft for excel.

Also be prepared to be asked about the functions and how you would use them. As I’ve learned anyone can say buzzwords such as vlookup sumif etc. As an interviewer (in abscence of a qualification) I have to ask more questions.

What is the difference between Accounting and Bookkeeping?

[ctovshs]

I don’t have a degree in accounting and have minimal knowledge of accounting. To me it sounds like a role I’d enjoy and is stable with good salary and prospects.

What qualifications do you think I need to do to start getting interest in my applications ? Paying for ACCA is extremely expensive, I’ve been advised to just apply for those that offer study support. Any suggestions?
