What is the best route to getting an accounting/finance job?
Asked by juniorgolfer22
I want to get into an accounting job but do not have experience. I have a bachelors of business finance and I will start on a masters of accounting program this year. I want to get some experience before I finish my masters program. What do I need to do to get started in the field?

Best Answer:
Get a part time job with a temp agency and do as much in that field as possible. Even if it is to be a file clerk, get to work for someone in this business. This will get you to know some influential people, and show them you are able to do the job. Then ask them to help you get a permanent job in that field. Do lots of footwork, go apply as many jobs in accounting and finance business. Dress well, learn to speak well, and make sure your marks are top . Know your stuff. And keep looking. In other word, start building your bridges now. Good luck.
