That's not the end of the race. Try it and if they didn't offer you, then look inside of you and bring out the greatness in you. With that, you can be an employer.

Yes, you can. Start your ICAN exams. Then look for a small accounting firm or a small accounting role.

Why not.....


Focus more on networking instead of applying for jobs

When you meet the right people, You will even get a job a first class has been fasting and praying for


Nigeria employment has nothing to do with Degree, Its about connection. You can have a degree in Zoology and be the heard of logistics in an oil company!

Na today yansh dey for back!

Am telling you from clear reality.

Take professional exams
Find something that can bring you some small income then, Offer to intern in an accounting firm.

Look up to God for favour because it's his favour that turns a man's labour to flavour!

I'm actually a 3rd class graduate of accounting. University of Ilorin. But I'm presently in the office where I earn a comfortable salary. The most important is self development. You can register for a PG degree and subsequently Masters or professional courses as ICAN, CIBN ETC. The sky is your limit.

The comments above have said it all. Develop yourself further get pgd and masters. Have a good network of friends and veer into business. You can even employ first class holders in the future.
Re: Can I Still Get A Job With My 3rd Class Degree In Accounting? by Nobody: 9:38am On May 16, 2019
Get a diploma

Do professional exams and get a certificate on them

Then if possible do your ICAN programme

Don't forget to be involved with a side hustle while you are at the three above statements

Re: Can I Still Get A Job With My 3rd Class Degree In Accounting? by SarkinYarki: 9:39am On May 16, 2019
Certificate is just mind games so free your mind and fly bro ..even if you finish with 1st class as an accountant nobody will pay you more than 200k a month and it will not help you ... Free your mind and before the end of this year accountants will be begging to do your books

Why do you make cart pushing a bad job? The person engaging in such might probably be richer than you.

To think this is one of the many menial jobs people like you gladly take up abroad

As$hole.


When real n reasonable people put aside their pride to seek advice, fake and low life like yhu shouldn't comment. If not, yhu will end up displaying yhur stupidity to d whole world.....as yhu jxt did.

Idiots like yhu contribute to the rise in suicide rate in Nigeria today, careless talk on the internet making the soft n weak feel too ridiculed and hopeless.
Re: Can I Still Get A Job With My 3rd Class Degree In Accounting? by orisunmibare01(m):
take courses in data science with python or R programming languages and become a data scientist....you can then take microsoft certificatinn exam in data science, its just abt 35k.
This gives you edge over ordinary accounting grauates and data scientists without accounting background.
You also have your feet in IT and financial sectors.

op, i just remembered MICROSOFT DYNAMICS too

Not about your qualifications, it’s about who you know. If you depend on your 3rd class remember there are many unemployed 1st class graduates out there.

Yes you can. I graduated with a 3rd class in accounting also and I have changed jobs thrice since I graduted in 2009. I even secured a job before most of the top guys in my class. Certificate is over rated bro.

shocked



How did you come out with a 3rd class?

It is either you were doing kerewawa from one female hostel to the other or you are both dull & broke, coz success is expensive in most of our Nigerian universities.

If you no know book, get the money to use check insults from your lecturers.

I think you actually deserve what you got..


For all those shouting certificate is overrated, us your own clean yansh after u use pit latrine na.

My advice to you is to find a skill and learn or buy a laptop.

1. Register for ACCA

2. Refuse all exemptions and start from the very beginning

3. Make sure you opt in for the BSc Applied Accounting degree offered by ACCA in partnership with Oxford Brookes University

4. Try as much as possible to get a first class in the Oxford Brookes degree

5. Know the courses so well that you can teach them and offer to teach some of the courses (It would improve your teaching skills and network)

6. Complete your ACCA.

Your chances of getting a job during and after the ACCA program will increase greatly.

Best of luck.
