i have an accountant job interview tomorrow any ideas on what i can say 2 give me more chance of getting it?
i am 18 and you have to be computer literate which i am but i have no accountancy experience which means other candidates may have a better chance than me. So anyone have any ideas to make me sound like i am really interested because i really want this job.

Answer 1 :
well usually if you don't have any experience or you haven't gone to school for accounting you can't get an accountants job. It's a very tough job so there's not really much you can say. I mean i guess it just depends on what company you're going to be working for too. I am actually an accountants assistant but i also went into it w/no experience so they would've never hired me as an accountant. But good luck anyway!
Answer 2 :
Flick through papers like the financial times online and other similar material so you can show your awareness of current issues when answering interview questions. You don't need to be word perfect just show that you have a keen interest. Also have a look at sites like acca and cima which will give you some info on different types of accountant and the progression to become qualified. Again you don't need to go in depth but shows you are really interested and committed. If they are interviewing you then they are already interested and not concerned about the fact you have no actual experience. Don't worry and good luck.
