    Hi,
    You could try doing what I did; writing to local accountancy firms around your area to see if any of them will offer you work experience. Make sure you follow each letter up with a telephone call about a week later. Even if it is only for a few weeks agencies still take notice of it. Another thing you could do is do some voluntary work. You could work as a treasurer or something similar to build up your work experience and also to help you build up a reference. If you are still at college approach your tutor and ask if they have any links to employers who would be willing to offer you work experience. Remember all the experience that you get counts. For voluntary work try the do-it website http://www.do-it.co.uk Good luck.
    Yours,
    Jayne Hogan

    Hi i had the same problem a few years ago, but with the help of Hays recruitment I had loads of interviews and now i have been in a practice environment for over 2 years, give them a whirl.
