...These are the 3 Accountancy I know. I have same problem with you when I started job hunting I ended up in care home (ive done 6 months care giving course in Phils) i was uneasy to apply for accounting job to start with because I wasnt too sure if I can get one.
Yes AAT is ok to start with you can start in Level 3 if u want to because you have the degree but I started AAT level 2 (its free tuition at the moment) ..Sage is ok and you can do home study. Just post your CV to REED, Jobstoday, Monster UK as well, the more the merrier.
CIMA ACCA and ACA are the next one after AAT and it depends if you want Financial Accounting or Management Accounting
Financial Accounts are prepared annually -mainly for the benefit of people outside the management of the business
Management Accounts prepared on a monthly basis to enable the managers to run the business effectively.
--Here in the UK if it is a big business the Finance Dept is split into different department ..as a starter you can try applying for Purchase ledger (payables) or Sales ledger (receivables)
-- if you apply for a job as long as you know the fundamentals of accounting then all will be ok - they will teach to how to use the software.
--One thing important is Excel , Word and Outlook .
There is no harm in trying have your CV ready and Upload it.
Hope you find one,
