It's so hard to find a job, even I have a 1 year and half experience in accounting field. I want to learn and explore more in accounting but It's really hard to find the right company that will give me a chance to share my knowledge and help me to grow. I applied to hundreds of jobs with few responses. What is wrong with my resume? What I am going to do now, should I give up?

Get your cpa if you don’t have it. Might not be the news you want to hear, but the cpa solidifies yourself as an accountant and leads to recruiters spamming you

Cpa firms need bodies. You can get hired at any cpa firm doing audit or tax for sure.

Try contacting several recruiting agencies like Robert half and look at temp to hire positions. It should open up more opportunities

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read?

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last.

I am an acting senior and am training 3 new hires. They are not doing well, so I often re-do their works even after I give them 2 pages step by step instruction. The problem is my manager and director don't see the problems (because those problems happen behind the scene) and think all the A1s are performing exceptionally well. The A1s and I are all associates, so I don't even have a chance to give them an official feedback (snapshot at pwc). How to address this issue to my manager and director?
