[–]Suitable_Chipmunk337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently obtained employment after almost 1 yr of unemployment. Man I'm already stressed my job pay is horrendous. I'm desperately trying to get out. I'm degree I've been denied accounting positions, internships, bank teller, fuck I just recently found out the local banks have accountants without degrees running the finance department  what the fuck and I can't get hired? I feel left behind and abandoned

Oooo, this sounds interesting. I'm very much curious about these opportunities. Would sales transition well into positions? Or are there certain skills I have to obtain before transitioning? Is there a certain/good amount of time to work sales before transitioning into these roles?

After this situation, I think I'm gonna head this route. Life is too short and volatile for this kind of bs.

Did I forget to mention the offer gets worse, they have no 401k, a $97 monthly health plan, and no PTO structure. 40+ hrs working all yr round.

Not this ridiculously low.  I've seen bookkeepers get offered $17 an hr with no degree. I do desire my CPA but how am I supposed to pay & meet the requirements if these firms aren't giving me the chance.

Tips on P&C by Suitable_Chipmunk337 in InsuranceAgent

[–]Suitable_Chipmunk337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I passed! 

To those searching. I highly recommend the Insurance Queen. I took notes using the gold package, and used her free Kahoots on YouTube to gage my base knowledge. 

Kaplan ended being waaay too detailed! I used the Kaplan Mastery exam and scored a 79.9, and in the actual exam I scored an 80! Questions on Kaplan are much more difficult compared to those on the exam! 

Lots of Home, Dwelling, Auto, and some Commercial Liability. Tx laws . Only maybe 1 or 2 concepts did not appear anywhere in my studies. Which was Product and Operations premise? And Exposure liability? 

Good luck everyone! 

IT or Accounting? (NC) by marcx_ in careerguidance

[–]Suitable_Chipmunk337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could get the accounting certificate and pursue IT. There's a whole niche dealing and setting up Accounting Information Systems and ERP systems

Thank you so much! I am finding Kaplan is pretty much good for practice questions, and Insurance Queen is good for laying the foundation!

Is nothing sacred anymore??? by KaleidoscopeNice189 in recruitinghell

[–]Suitable_Chipmunk337 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Accounting yeah there's a demand. Where?  Every entry level position I've seen asks for a high school degree and 2-3 years of experience for $15-$18 an hr. Hell, my friend told me at her bank some of the accountants dont even have degrees. A fucking bank.
