My first job as a bookkeeper
Permalink Closed

Hi everyone

I've just finished my first week working as a bookkeeper, which means the last 2 years of juggling courses with my normal job have now payed off.
Although its using Kerridge and not sage it is all falling into place biggrin I didn't think anyone would take on someone who only has qualifications and no experience but I was wrong

smile

Thank you for all your messages of congratulations, I just hope I can encourage others who are wondering how they can convert there knowledge into paid work, especially in such hard times...so many people told me I was wasteing my time and that nobody would employ me but I have proven them wrong..

Hi Lisa,

Congratulations Lisa, I too have just finished my 4th week in a new job as a bookkepper, never thought anyone would employ me either, I don't have any formal qualifications as a bookkeeper, but went to uni to study accountancy and did a sage course a few years ago, I didn't finish the three years because of illness, and now I have a job and I'm loving it. I'm 51, so there's hope for us all!!!
