Dear Doctor,
I have completed my ACA Advanced stage exams and now looking to gain my 450 days of pre-requisite experience for case study exam and membership. I have experience of working part time as bookkeeper for 3 years and also recently on an ongoing temporary accounting position in a charity. What do you think are the prospects for me and given the range of opportunities at WH Marks Sattin, I believe I could find a thriving position. Could you please also let me know about opportunities in the Middle East.
Many thanks in anticipation
Best regards.
A WH Marks Sattin director replied:
Thanks for your comment on "internship in investment banking". If you are seeking a career into financial services but as of yet do not have a background in this, then any experience you can gain to demonstrate your interest in this sector will be well regarded. However, as an experienced accountant and upon completing your qualification, it is possible to make the move directly into financial services in a similar role to the one you are doing now. I would recommend targeting the smaller banks/boutiques as a stepping stone as the reality is that the larger institutions will favour candidates with previous banking experience - and in the current markets there will be stiff competition. The best way for us to advise you more accurately on specific opportunities that suit your background will be for you to send a full CV so a relevant consultants can call you to discuss.
All the best
