Hardy's: It Gets Better with Time

11/11/13

After graduating BS Accountancy from the University of Santo Tomas in 1997, I decided to attend a review school and take the CPA Board Exams. A few weeks before the board, I was hired by China Bank. I did not pass the board exam. But I have a job waiting for me.

I had five wonderful years working in the bank. I decided it's about time to explore other areas of accounting. I transferred to a company belonging to a different industry. I had to start all over again.  Stayed for five years. And had a wonderful achievement. From entry level position to Financial Analyst.

Then I explored the online world. I applied for an online job as an Internet Researcher. I remember, my prospective employer was so hesitant because my experience is mainly about finance. I told him, "Give me a try. I'm a quick learner. Let's have a deal. Give me a month. If you are not satisfied with my work, I won't send you an invoice for my services. I'll consider this as a training and experience opportunity." A year later, I became the Senior Researcher and I supervise two other researchers.

See, things get better over time, just like Hardy's – after 160 years, it just keeps getting better.
