Hi
I completed my Graduation with 2:2 followed by Post Graduation which was decent grades. I have over 5 years of professional accountancy related work experience in good jobs however due to family circumstances I was forced to take career break and now want to resume my career after period of 8 years.
I want to resume by completing my ACA as nearly all my previous experience is accountancy related and an ACA degree would not only refresh my accounting technique but also let me work in accountancy profession while I study.
Big problem is that how likely is anyone to accept at a mature student in late 30's to be on their graduate trainee program? Also how does a career break affect someone's decision to consider my application? I am flexible with firm being or smaller and even the money as far as I acquire good work exposure.
Any advice would be highly appreciated
