After 9 years of not working, I am coming back to the job market.
I used to work as an Accounts Payable clerk.
When I went for a job interview two weeks ago, the recruiter said, it will be hard for me to get hired because I am not current with the Accounting Clerk’s experience. I am a quick learner. So where can I get the current training?
I know Quickbooks and Excel by experience, but do not have certificates to attached with my job application.
Where can I get these certificates? Do I need to attend classes again? Or just take the test to get certified? Need help and advise.
Thank you.
