Bookkeeping, audit and accounts, banking and financial services, fintech, insurance, chartered accountancy, company secretaryship \u2013 all of these sectors offer potentially lucrative jobs and careers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you think only in terms of the Indian market, the competition is likely to be so fierce that the career you thought would be really high-paying, turns out to be nowhere close to it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you know what you should really<\/em> do? Stick to bookkeeping, audit and accounts, etc., but go global <\/strong>with your skills. At our free, upcoming bootcamp on How Indian Accounting & Bookkeeping Professionals can Get US Jobs and Freelance Gigs, <\/strong>we will tell you how you can find, pitch to and grab some lucrative jobs from clients in the US. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can even build a solid, highly-valued business on the side \u2013 working in your spare time from home \u2013 as you continue to hold your day job! Once you have broken into the US market under our guidance (and if you do everything right), you will be inundated by work from clients abroad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will even guide you on how to build the perfect profile, for websites like Upwork or Fiverr, where clients can find you and agree to work with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, take a look at this accountant\u2019s profile<\/a> on the online job platform Upwork. As you can see, his earnings total nearly USD 100,000 (INR 82 lakh approx). Of course, he hasn\u2019t got here overnight, but do you see that you can do the same work and make similar kind of money over a period of time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Or take a look at this profile of a bookkeeping expert<\/a> from a small town in Uttarakhand. With just eight years of experience, she has earned over USD 190,000 (over INR 1.55 crore)<\/strong> on Upwork!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This accounts expert<\/a> from Vadodara is not even a fully-qualified CA, but has still used remote freelance work to make more than USD 123,000 on Upwork. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This former banking professional<\/a> who did not even complete his CA has positioned himself as a cryptocurrency expert and has consistently upgraded himself. Result: earnings of nearly USD 130,000 on Upwork, and glowing client testimonials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The point behind sharing all these examples is to make you aware of the immense possibilities out there for international remote freelance workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenges you will face<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, there will be challenges. Nearly 50% of India\u2019s population is below 25 years. And yet, according to a report in India Today<\/a>, the World Economic Forum says that of the 13 million (1.3 crore) young people who join India\u2019s workforce each year, only one in four management professionals; one in five engineers; and one in 10 graduates actually has the skills to be employable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is because our education system does not teach us even the basic practical skills needed in the modern world. Thanks to outdated syllabi and teaching methods, we are totally unprepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if there are jobs, there aren\u2019t enough skilled people to do them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roadmap to success <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which is where we come in. Give us an opportunity, and we will show you the roadmap of how you can do what the professionals mentioned above have achieved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t wait for someone to give you a job. Learn the required skills and create one for yourself. And the US market is where most of the action is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why? Skilled US professionals in these high-demand, low-supply areas are hugely expensive, and unaffordable for most startups and small businesses. In comparison, a similarly-qualified Indian professional will do the work at a fraction of the cost, but still earn far more than fellow Indian professionals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, serving international clients builds a track record that will be as valuable as solid gold in your future career.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
