    Got an idea for a video for you. Perhaps something related to careers relating to CIMA and how to progress through from FC to FD to CFO level & what are the skill sets required to get to each level in various/or a specific sector🤔

    Amazing video! You may have mentioned it and I missed it but in terms of becoming a management accountant is it possible to become a management accountant straight after a BSc in Accounting (like get into a training management accounting role) or do you have to start in financial first? Asking because management interests me far more and if it was available as a starting graduate position I would take it in an instant

      Should I study directly through the CIMA route or study a BCom Financial Accounting then go through CIMA to become a CGMA ?

    • @XAE_A_Xii
      @XAE_A_Xii ปีที่แล้ว

      You start with the certificate level which is not complicated if you have some very knowledge of bookkeeping, school level maths , again not too high level, and have technical mind.

    Hi great vid. Im aspiring to be a management chartered accountant like you. I’m currently in year 12(sixth form). Did you do any work experience related to this field in year 12 or 13. Im really struggling to find good work experience for accounting so that i have stuff to write about on my personal statement. Also if you dont mind me asking, what was your career pathway straight after A levels. Im ngl im a bit clueless onto what i should do.

    • @CRAIGO10
      @CRAIGO10  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hey mate - don't sweat it. There isn't really a career path into accountancy, I've known people with all degrees end up in Accountancy. I studied Business with Finance but if you want the most valuable then I recommend an Accountancy & Finance degree. You'll get multiple exemptions from CIMA meaning you can become Chartered a lot quicker :)

    @amaanhaider8683 ปีที่แล้ว

    I need some advice. I am stuck between either doing accounting or marketing as a career. If I do accounting I will either do tax or management accounting. I want to pursue an accounting degree because it can lead to many other non accounting careers and the pay is quite high, however marketing seems more fun and less stressful. What are some benefits I will have if I end up choosing the accounting path over the marketing path? Also I dont want to have to do another 4-5 extra years of study after university so if I end up going the accounting route should I do CA or CPA? Also what are some benefits and negatives of public vs private accounting?

    • @CRAIGO10
