I tried to search for SSC in jobstreet recently after u explaining and its really quite hard to go in company like Shell. So I have to try to go smaller company (sdn bhd) that stated SSC or its better to apply any account and finance role in listed company?

Besides there are around 800++ applicants applying AP AR for big listed company so its quite hard to go in also. How long I need to wait and is it mean i need to lower my expected salary? Is it will be easier if I apply other role ie credit collection / finance operation / cash management etc first only internal transfer to other department after that.

Im major in finance so I still need to take 8 papers instead of 4 while working so I'm afraid that i cant handle it. But prof cert looks important.  cry.gif  cry.gif  cry.gif

Try out other MNCs such as those in FMCG line, they have business partnership finance role as well, might be something that suits you and not over boring. Marketing, sales, supply chain, etc, all have their own business partnership finance role.

I think now i will just apply any position related to account and finance in any listed /big companies. **running out of time**
Can advice any roles that related to finance and account that have future in this line?

At the end of the day u gotta make yourself competitive. Make it so compelling that the company gotta hire you. Talents are hard to come by and HR appreciates talented candidates.
