    Hello,

    I am studying Accounting & Finance in a PT 4 year course. Currently work as a manager in the hospitality sector and am looking for any opportunities to switch to the accounting sector. I have no classes until September, so i am open to do non-paid work experience on my days off(Mo-Fr). What would you recommend that i do. I always do my best at any work i do, so i am ready to put in the effort in any opportunity that i may receive. All ads on jobs.ie claim that they require previous experience. Any suggestions for the next step would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    send out CV's saying you are looking for work experience some of the smaller places would take you on. it'll be harder with covid.

    and once you're in the door most sound bosses/managers will throw you a few quid.

    Years ago I got out the phone book, and sent my CV and cover letter to all the accountancy practices within my area.
