wait...what?

New docs get gaurenterd a job for the First two years as an fy1/2... 60hrs for around 30k in hand 1st yr. around 35k in 2nd. Worked like dogs. Go figure!! I don't think drs can be compared to any other grad. 99% of grad drs are shit hot competitive mf's! Slackers get kicked out in the first couple of yrs. if you make it through to graduation as a slacker, you will end up with the shitty posts after fy2 - which is probably why one becomes jobless... Why spend 5/6yrs studying to go down a completely bollocks training pathway in a speciality that doesn't interest you? To get your first couple of highly competitve speciality preferences, you wouldn't believe the standards that need be achieved before finals.

A friend of mine recently graduated from bham Uni with a first in accounting. Had a great cv and work experience history..So pretty much immediately got a job working at phones 4 u, starting on 24k. He is now getting trained up by them and will jump upwards beyond 30k soon. Not bad.

Another friend of mine is doing AAT on the side whilst working full time. A different non Uni route into accounting. In theory he will end up on the same ladder eventually. Will be interesting to see how it plays out for them.

Keep on it Kessieboi, doesn't matter what anyone else thinks!
