ACCA with 2 years of experience looking for a job
Hi 23M living in Lahore, I completed my ACCA in 2024 then got a 6 week internship at one of the big4 and got lucky enough to land a job at a very well known institute while doing internship. So I worked there for 1 year and 7-8 months before I got a better offer from a small startup type company. The money factor got the better of me and I didn't put a lot of mind in evaluating my current job and the one offered to me.
So coming to the point I joined that small company, their business was client based like providing financial and bookkeeping services to overseas clients. I worked there for almost 2 months when I was told that I am no longer required there as they were looking for someone who had experience in that field (I came from an audit background and this was an accounts job) and this exact point I raised during the interviews to which their answer was that you will be properly trained which never really happened. The person they connected me with worked remotely as he was working another job is FSD. He was very overwhelmed at his other job that he barely gave me time which eventually resulted in delays in tasks. The management was unprofessional which you could expect from a small startup. There were no proper SOPs which one expects to be placed in a company. The crux is that I left a very secure job for this company which didn't work out and now it's been 2 months I am out of work and can't really land any jobs.
If someone can give me advice or have similar kind of experience or have tips to job hunting process please share it.
Thanks!
