What jobs Should I take while in University to become an Accountant?

Should i be taking accounting clerk position, Bookeeping, office assasitant, and accounting clerk?


I'm really confused. Because most of those jobs require 2~3 years of experience but i have neither. Are there any jobs out there that would be of help to acquire the necessary experience?


Or should i just wait until one of those job offerings say they don't care whether i have any experience.

If there's an accounting club, join it and use every opportunity to meet accounting employeers.





Accounting is very much an in demand field. Once you graduate you won't have trouble finding work as long as you have the degree. Count your coursework as experience.
Reply:Don't take a job, just study hard, get great grades, sit for and pass the CPA (or whatever your local national equivalent is), and land a job that way. The kind of work you'd do as a CPA is reasonably far removed from the work of a clerk, so you wouldn't necessarily gain a lot of knowledge through the college job.
