AsSalamualaikum

I am studying to be a Chartered Certified accountant one day ,inshallah .I need 3 yrs work exp. to get the qualification.Problem is I don't know the type of jobs to look for .

The best place for an accountant to be is a bank coz thats where all the money is.But barring one all the other banks are riba-based here.(insert arab country).More-over I am worried even if i get in as a trainee to do auditing and things like that I might have to calculate interest or write it down or record it .

I asked the other working students what they do .Most said they commute to their various clients and get their fin. info to prepare trial balances .But travelling from place to place don't suit my feminine nature.

Any body know accountancy jobs that dont involve interest and suitable for girls ???
JazakhAllah khair
Wassalam
Ps:please dont suggest customer -care and secretarial work .I am more into working by myself=).Thanks for listening:)

Have you considered specializing in personal income taxes?  Or trying to get into the Finance Department at a major corporation?  Corporations need accountants in their Financial Assets departments, and I think they mostly deal with cataloging assets and recording depreciation.

JazakhAllah khair Sister pearl for your input.:)
Inshallah my duaa is that I get into one of the major accounting firms as a trainee and then explore my choices .

My sis was helping me make my resume and she was asking me EXACTLY what i'd like to work as and i was quite stumped because i don't want to get stuck in one kind of work from the beginning and shutout my self from other options.

Thats the sort of thing I am looking for ...recording Info and calculating figures! 8)
There are no taxes here whatsoever as far as i know(except CT ) .no employee income tax..no sales tax ...nufin....Though it might be introduced in the future when the americans run away with all the oil. ::)
