Hi all, I have been studying bookkeeping since last year, I have achieved my level 1 manual with 94% and I am currently awaiting my results for my level 2 computerised! I am thoroughly enjoying my studies and am about to start my level 2 manual.... :) I have previously worked as an administrator but unfortunately was made redundant a few months ago so have been job hunting. I have been applying for positions that are admin but that also lean towards the accounts side and working with the sage so that I can gain some experience whilst studying, this way once I have completed all of my studies I can maybe look at starting my own business. Today I went for an interview for an admin role with some sage work, turns out that the role is more of a bookkeeping and payroll position and will involve a lot of what I have recently learned. I was offered the job there and then and I start very soon! I am very excited and also very nervous, it will be fantastic to gain experience at the same time as studying for further qualifications, but is it too soon to be working for a company? should I have done more of my courses first? or am I just worrying over nothing and the experience will be great? Any tips or guidance for someone just stepping into the industry would be great!
