What should be my next step?

Hi all,
I have qualified with level 2 booking (AAT) last summer, since then I have been stuck in my day job and finding it very hard to know what to do next. I studied at a local private school and I got no advice on jobs, careers, what i should do next etc.
I have been researching but there are so many different things, I just don't know wether I first need to study the next course before I try to apply for jobs or do I apply for jobs and study along side it? If I'm to study, do I do a course on Sage or Level 3 bookeeping/accounting? Would anyone take on me with level 2 bookkeeping?
I just really don't know which way to go, I'm very confused. I don't mind studying some more while I can at my current job but don't want it to be a waste of money and time if I would be better getting a job first? (if i can get a job-seems very hard!)
Any help and advice anyone has will be gratefully received!!
Thank you

You could do either way. Level two will have given you enough basic knowledge to apply for positions such as Purchase Ledger Clerk which should make studying easier as a you will be able to see some of what you're learning in practice. Good luck!0
