Hi everyone,

I am looking for some general career advice but first let me tell everyone a little about myself.
I graduated in Dec. 2015 with a BBA in Accting and 150+ hrs and since then I have passed BEC, AUD and REG. I am currently studying for FAR. I have been applying for internships and entry level jobs all year long. I am currently a cashier at walmart and I have no experience as a manager or anything like that.
Every recruiter I actually get to speak to either tells me that I don’t fit the criteria for an intern and they will keep me on file or I don’t get a response. Despite having passed 3/4 of the CPA already. I need some suggestions on how I can get an internship or entry level job.
Would a MAcc help me get an internship?
Would MBA be better since I have 3/4 of CPA done?
Has anyone experienced this situation themselves?

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I need them!

you are no longer a candidate for internships but you should be applying directly to CPA firms for staff/associate positions. Go to each of your regional, boutique firms, and if your GPA is good the BIG4 and apply directly. Make sure you have a good resume and state on top of your resume below your education that you have pass 3/4 parts of CPA. Good luck!
