Pay as an Account Executive (Experience)

[Karrie]

Hi all, would like some help here. I am holding a MDIS degree in business & management studies. Been working as an Account Executive (salary is $3400) for the past three years at a Pte Ltd, and I’m currently pursuing ACCA, would like to know if I am overpaid/underpaid?

Another question is should I move on to another company for the higher position (maybe asst manager), am I qualified?

You are already very lucky. Some will not even consider the candidate unless the person is a local poly or university accounts graduate, or CAT/ ACCA graduate for any accounts related work, let alone pay the kind of salary you are getting as an accounts executive. This applies to business degree holders too. Some companies won't consider, even had an recruitment agency told me once that business degree is not relevant for accounts position. Thus my advice is to complete ACCA and then consider the options later.

Thank you for advice. Just wondering if there is other opportunity, would definitely want to get more experience and make myself more valuable.

I thought she said Account not Accounts?
