Add "exposure to..." and "worked with..." to your resume, then fake it till you make it, bruv.
financial reporting is a soul sucking endeavor imo

Yeah you are right. I started off as A/P and 3rd month into the job, promoted to financial reporting. Typically people don't jump that quick, not that I have personally heard/known of; therefore, I have plenty of experience and exposure.
Accounting is quite repetitive, day to day operation and month end, repeating again 12 x each year.
Without my designation, I can only move up to a senior accountant role and that will be the ceiling point. Just trying to see what other options I can move into without a designation. I am at the point in life where I don't want to study anymore as it does put a lot of strain on my body health, not because I am lazy. Designation does open up plenty more opportunities...Sighhhhh
