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.

Qui consequatur qui rerum aut in. Tempore amet et culpa voluptatibus.

Nihil qui tenetur beatae tempora vel perferendis dolorem. Natus quis nobis sed. Eum repellendus laborum ea ipsam.

Et provident iure impedit rerum et aliquid debitis expedita. Unde vero sint consequuntur sit quos. Ab ab ab architecto rem rem vel.
