Answer 1 :
You can try but I think you would be unsuccessful. The mere fact that you are in a dmp shows that you have had some personal issues that would not be compatible with the management of other peoples personal financial affairs.
Answer 2 :
Hi It may depend on how much debt is still outstanding on your plan, and the kind of accountancy job you apply for after training. A DMP is not a legally binding arrangement and is a way of paying back your outstanding debt in one affordable payment. If your circumstances changed and your only option was bankruptcy, then it could affect your career. I would recommend that you contact ACCA. I have attached a link for you. http://uk.accaglobal.com/ They will be able to confirm where you stand regarding this Kind Regards Sue

Answer 3 :
havent you got access to a careers adviser at school? obv maths and business studies i would think
Answer 4 :
Accountancy is the most boring job in the whole entire world So what you need is the patience of a god
Answer 5 :
Just obtain a good result in English and Maths. You then need to get into a local accountants practise and get onto a day release course doing GCSE and A Level book-keeping. Then move onto the AAT or straight into Chartered Accountancy etc... With accountancy, you can specialise in a specific area as opposed to being a normal mainstream accountant.
Answer 6 :
accountancy is a good o[ption - very flexible lots ofd career opportunities when qualified - general management, own business, etc etc at this stage choose subjects you will get good grades in which you also enjoy - it doesnt matter about subjects - its the same at a level when you get to uni you could do a degree in anything - eg chemistry - and then your accountancy - or do a degree in accountancy - either way for a levels just choose reasonably academic subjects thaqt you will get good grades in - thats is the most important - not the subject

Answer 1 :
Depends entirely what your interests and talents are. If you like numbers, people and business problems, fine - otherwise perhaps not!
Answer 2 :
Any kind of business, either for profit or non-profit require accountant. It's not necessarily a "glamorous" job but one would not go hungry if you become a good accountant. Try to pursue for becoming a CPA which requires a college degree in order to sit for the CPA exam. I am impressed that you are only 13 and already thinking about your future career. Keep up the good work and good luck on your studies.
Answer 3 :
Accounting is an excellent choice for a career. People will always need accountants. As long as there are businesses there will be accountants. Even if you can't get a job, you can always free lance and be self employed.

Answer 1 :
The best CVs look comfortably full. They should reach two A4 pages but not look crowded or empty. Use bullet points and short paragraphs in addition to a readable font like Verdana to improve the CV's presentation! The CV's language ought be oriented to the employer. Use examples from your experience when describing your skills and spell out how these might benefit employers! That way they can see immediately that you're a great candidate. Good luck!
