Answer 5 :
would you let a part-qualified brain surgeon operate on you ? The very first 2 words tell me you're not finished learning yet...I'd leave alone and move onto the next applicant. Constructively speaking, perhaps you could re-think and present yourself rather than immedaitely set the scene that you are not ready for the role
Answer 6 :
Look for a lower grade job. Loads of places look for people who have or are studying toward AAT. Your experience abroad won't count for much as it's difficult to assess and verify what you've been doing. There are lost of accountants qualifying every year (me too soon!) so experience is key.
Answer 7 :
I live and work in the North East - we have often taken part qualified staff (most of them studying for their AAT exams). Can I suggest you register with agencies and do some temp' work? Two of our staff gained their experience that way.
Answer 8 :
I'm qualified to Level 3 I worked in accounts for a small business and did everything except the wages! Why don't you go back to college and finish studying or do the next level if that's what you are interested in. Most people will employ you if you have working knowledge, are competent, willing to learn and show an understanding in the job. It just depends what wages you are hoping to earn. Don't expect too much until you have proved yourself. You can always get your qualifications on an evening course.
Answer 9 :
small company will hire you. Question of finding one.
