    Hi.

    I am currently working as a sales ledger clerk and finished all my F papers. Do you recommend to start doing P papers or look for a work experience first? I do not want to get to a point where I will be overqualified and struggle to find accounts related jobs. Can you share your experiences of looking for a job and being told you have finished ACCA too quickly?

    Thanks

    I can’t see how finishing your ACCA would be viewed as a bad thing by an employer. I think if you finished your exams and you already have a little bit of experience, doors will open up for you. I certainly don’t think you should stop doing exams until you get a new job.
