I currently work with taxes in the US. Was offered a position as a financial controller for a restaurant. Basically accounting/payroll/inventory but also managing deliveries and helping with catering drop offs (moving/setup/ billing clients). Although I'm confident I could learn every aspect, glass door is suggesting an accounting degree and ~ 3 years experience.
I think even if it was half of the job, I'd feel comfortable accepting. There is just a lot of room for error with the lack in experience. I'd be going from $14/hr to 50k and it's hard to turn down that raise when they asked me (I didn't apply).
Is it common to actually turn down work and be honest when underqualified?
Edit: Survey says I take the position and learn as I go. They wanted me for some reason so I need to trust them and myself.
Edit 2: Well. This felt like the biggest pep rally. This sub is wonderful. On top of employment insight, please send culinary inspiration. My latest project was a brown butter and banana ice-cream.
