22 August 2011 Work and Career Profile and Guidance

Urgent Counselling / Advice and guidance needed on my job/work and career profile:
I am in mid thirties, post -graduate without any practical work experience or say work experience.
I have done B.com-49% (regular college), 2000 and P.G.D.B.A.-2006 Specialisation in Finance Management. Through Distance Learning / Correspondence (Private Institute).
Before PGDBA, I was pursuing C.S., But unfortunately I did not passed any intermediate groups. I had passed C.S. foundation course in 1997.But due to my graduation I could not clear any Inter group. I passed my subjects but not aggregate marks (50%) in the one group.
After Post-Graduation diploma, there is a gap of 5 years till now(2011). Now I am searching job because of regular income.
The problem I am facing is Nil work experience in my Bio Data. I am being offered:
1.) Account Assistant job (tally knowledge is required.), But I don't know tally. And Advanced Excel.
2.) Payroll executive job: I don’t know anything practical about payroll.
I am in Dilemma, confused. Since there is a lot of gap after doing my B.com, (it is 10 years gap), I think I forgot my accounting knowledge which I learned in B.com and PGDBA.
And another problem is that with I have to sign Bond of 1.5years / penalty of 6 times salary.
Since, I think I forgot my B.com knowledge, IF I proceed for training in accounts/ Tally and/or payroll , I don't know whether I will be able to continue and that's why I am reluctant to sign the bond.
Please answer and guide me:
1. Shall I learn tally in the blank condition what I am .I mean to say that I did B.com 10 years back so I have forgotten all the basic/ all concepts of accounting. Is it right or will I be able to use tally easily. Is tally easy?
Suppose, I have forgotten everything about account, then can I learn it in short time?
Like 3-4 months time. Please guide me.
2. Shall I join as payroll executive; take training in Payroll by the company. And make career in Payroll. , since I don't know anything about payroll, which accounting concepts are applied in Payroll process, I don’t know. So, will I be able to learn Payroll without knowing accounts knowledge.
Since I have not worked in any company I don’t have practical experience.
Shall I join tally and excel training institute?
3. What options or career’s or jobs are there in commerce/ any field which I can directly join in today’s date.
4. Which jobs are there in the job market for B.com & PGDBA in finance?
5. How do I search job in finance field in which no accounting knowledge is required.
6. Which company's do I look for jobs?
7. Please explain finance operations jobs.
8. Which type of Jobs I search for.

23 August 2011 It is quite surprising that since last 10 years you are doing nothing then where from you are meeting your expenses?

Anyhow, it is never late. The day you start is the day of opening. You learn Tally it is not that tough. You can learn within two months but you have to practice. After learning tally join as a junior accountant you can job easily and the remuneration shall be 5 to 7 thousand per month.

You can also sign the bond if you do not want to learn tally and take up the payroll service.

Nothing to worry.
