    Default Ask Aimee: the AAT career coach - week 1

    Here are Aimee's first couple of answers to questions submitted by AAT Facebook fans. The questions she answers this week are:

    1. How can I use the 'Interests and other activities' section of my CV to sell myself?

    2. How can I make my AAT level 2 qualification more appealing to employers when I have no accounting experience?




    Want to submit a question? Leave a comment below, or via any of AAT's social media channels (she only has time to answer a couple a week I'm afraid!).
