Would working at a payroll company help me find a job in finance in the future?
Asked by Virginia
I do a little accounting and everything else for this payroll company. Will I have a better chance at landing a job compared to working as a teller? Or is being a teller better? I'm planning on applying for a finance position in May after I receive my degree in finance. Thanks!

Best Answer:
I couldn't hurt. Payroll is combined at quite a few companies with the financial/accounting department. Payroll is a little different than some accounting because you deal with the here and now, and the past, but not so much with forecasting. It would give you a good rounded background and every employer need to pay their people, so you can take it anywhere you go. Never hurts to learn more things.
