Fund Accountant at State Street

Good morning everyone,

After graduating at the end of October 2020 from Queen Mary with a MSc in Investment and Finance (1st class), I could only secure a position at State Street in Krakow, as Fund Accountant. Now, the pay is low, incredibly low (around 600€ net per month), however, I do not know if I should accept it, due to the current economical situation, or keep looking for something better (I am currently in London).

Apart from this, I do not have any relevant work experience; having studied in Italy for my BA, there internships are not common.
