[@accountantshe]

Hi everyone thank you so much for watching!! What video would you like to see next?!

[@amybonarius495]

So happy that I found your channel through the AAT magazine. What an amazing story you have and one I hope to achieve in years to come. It’s very refreshing to see a modern view of the accounting industry 💞☺️

[@martharewi7569]

Hi there, love your video, you definitely motivated me to study so I've just enrolled in an accounting course to help run our business efficiently.. currently using Xero but prefer to really know the software proficiently

[@accountantshe]

Best of luck! I've got lots of Xero tutorial videos which might help you to get started! 🩷

[@catherinebarranger-clark7463]

Brilliant video! Totally agree with your points on pay. Once of my students got a pay rise after each AAT exam he passed. Wow, was he motivated!

[@accountantshe]

Thanks for sharing!

With my Associates in Accounting and working on my Bachelors in Finance, I have just started my hunt for an entry level job. Your videos are very helpful!

[@robertpearce-bailey5576]

I love your videos, really eye opening. I'm going to be starting my level 2 course this year and your content is really motivating.

[@SamuelLaleye]

Thanks Racheal,, I just found your videos and they are really informative.

[@pearlocansey7041]

Thank you. I really like your videos. I'm a partly qualified accountant and still getting used to and finding out about the profession.. I also didn't do a degree, went straight in the professional accountancy like you, maybe.

[@accountantshe]

There's so much to learn! keep at it!

II am from the UK. I am struggling to get an entrely level graduate accounting job. I am not sure what to do. I recently completed my BSc accounting degree this summer and am getting no luck in my applications atm. . Any help on my next steps would be greatly appreciated?

[@HazaEgg]

So I am currently 19, I went to college and obtained a Level 2 and Level 3 Merit AAT from my 2 college years, but during my second year of college (when covid struck hard and so did lockdowns, I fell out of love with it as I was at home alone studying while everyone went back, (shielding) and I went down a dark spiral with my mental health so I, over time, stopped enjoying accounting and was kind of lost in myself) and for a year I was dead set on finding an apprenticeship in the electrician field)) but with no luck finding one and colleges starting up, I am now thinking back to my college days where I actually very much enjoyed learning about accounting and I think I will go back to it. But after a year of not thinking about accounting I fear I have forgotten a lot and since I've got a level 3, I fear I cant find an apprenticeship as a way into it but if I went straight into a job with the level 3 I would be pretty lost.. anyone here got any advice if they we're in my shoes?

[@accountantshe]

Take a look at this video i have, it may help you.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y57YeaqNa9V9gq8

I did AR with job title as Accountant but folks said AR is not accounting job 🤔 Also, just wanting to say accounting is very hot market so even lowest level position, HR will consider those candidates with degrees and experience.

[@Musa-ek7yd]

In how many years did you completed your ACCA and how many hours you were studying.

[@jennychatwin7457]

I didn't know that you could be an accountant without going to University. How do you become qualified?

[@accountantshe]

You absolutely can! I became qualified through an apprenticeship where I studied AAT

[@1cb877]

Are you and your partner ACCA/ CIMA qualified ?

[@accountantshe]

Yes! Our practice is a Chartered practice with ACCA

[@michellemacco]

Well in California, YOU DO NEED A DEGREE 📜

[@tavrosnitram1529]

wait really? i did not know that, the only reason im going to college for it is because i need to stay on my dads insurance. now theres another bonus to this decision hahaha

[@mickielnurse9018]

@@tavrosnitram1529 Yes in the Us south Affrica you need a degree plus a masters or maters credits, to sit the board exams to become a CPA in the us and a CA in south Africa. Actully the profession is not Accounting but Accountancy where you are either a CPA or a CA, if you are not any of the two, you are not a professional.
