I've been on job hunting last three weeks. I'm getting an invitations for interviews , but no job offer. I want to go into desired area (accounting), but I don't have much experience in it. I always ask for feedback and answer is always the same: you came accross very well, they liked you, but you don't have enough experience/ they were stronger candidates. I thought after 15 interviews I'll get a new job, but not luck so far. Any advice?

Thank you for all responses!
@CyberCritical It's an answer A. I find very difficult to say in fancy words " I don't have much experience".
I'm already applying for entry roles and I'm doing AAT level 3.

You'll need to pass level 3 AAT to get an entry level finance job I would think. Then if you do AAT level 4 you could progress.

Thank you for all comments. I’ve just received a feedback from the interview from last week. Again, someone was more experienced. I’ve been told I interviewed well, my CV is very good and perhaps I can look into Xero certification, as many use it today. I’m glad someone put effort and gave me a feedback.

Yes the xero accreditation and also some temping, or take an evening book keeping position for a social club or similar.

Sounds like you need to stop saying so much in the interviews

@coxesorangepippin What do you mean: stop saying so much?

Hi!
An update: I’ve got a job! Excited. Very similar to my previous job, but less driving, much closer. Similar package , salary and benefits. I’m starting early February. Thank you all!
