Ok, I am a student who is looking for an entry level job to gain accounting experience.  All of the jobs that I have seen all require experience, and many of them require you to be holding the 4 year degree, which I am currently working on.

I need an entry level job that I can work full time (I am going to night classes) and that pays me (not an internship for credit).

Anyone have any tips/pointers for me???

Accounts Receivable.....get in as a Clerk.  The best time to apply in my area is around the college holidays, so you just missed it.  That shouldn't stop you...

Set your sights a little lower and look for bookkeeper, A/R Clerk, Payroll Clerk, etc....

Going for a acct. clerk job is a good way to get some experience--it will look good on your resume too.  I'm a 1st year MAcc student; my internship this summer will be my first accounting-related work.
