I am 30 and have an 18 month old and have been a SAHP with him. I am now ready to go back to work but I don't want to go back to an admin job. Is it possible to start a career with a toddler? I have no strong desire to work in a particular field, but I would like to have a professional qualification of some sort. I was thinking maybe in Accountancy or HR as I have had admin jobs in those fields and there seems to be part time jobs in those fields. I have a 2:2 in Economics, good GCSEs and A levels and work experience in a variety of admin jobs.
If I gained a qualification in either Accountancy or HR would employers also consider the work experience I gained prior to having my ds? Does any have any experience in a career change or start after having children? Am I too old to be accepted onto graduate schemes? Do companies take on older graduates for graduate/trainee roles?
