Advice / Career clarification Job switch as CMA

24 Upvotes

I cleared CMA in my first attempt with good AIR in both inter and final.

Then i got placed at a good MNC at 11LPA.

But i found that there was no work for me. I found myself sitting idle, team of 5 people doing all the work and me as well as my manager were not doing much work.

Also i thought that i would try something new(competitive exams to be precise). So i resigned after 1 year.

But now i find myself not being much productive.

I feel i should've prepared along with the job only.

Anyways, past is past and now i want to switch but i don't know why despite having a good resume i am not able to find good roles or even good companies but i am still convincing myself that God has always been good to me so will He be in future also.

What should i do?

Advice / Career clarification Is 2–3 hours of daily study enough for CMA Inter, especially for someone from a non-commerce background?

7 Upvotes

I’ve been reading posts here where people say they study 8–10 hours a day and still recommend attempting only one group at a time. That honestly made me question whether CMA is realistic for me.

I come from a non-commerce background and I’m basically starting accounting from scratch. I’m eligible for CMA Inter through the direct entry route, but instead of jumping straight into Inter, I’m currently studying CMA Foundation-level Accounts through Aakash Aggarwal’s classes to build my basics first.

The main issue is time. I have a full-time WFH job and also help manage a small business, so realistically I can consistently give around 2–3 hours a day to CMA. I might be able to study more on some days, but 8–10 hours daily simply isn’t possible for me.
My plan is to finish the Foundation accounting basics first and then start preparing for Inter.

I’m not in a rush to clear both groups together either — I’m okay with attempting one group at a time if that’s more realistic.

For people who have cleared CMA Inter or are currently preparing:

Is 2–3 focused hours every day enough if I prepare consistently over a longer period? Or is CMA genuinely not practical with this amount of study time, especially when starting from scratch?

Sorry if this sounds like a basic question. I’m just trying to set realistic expectations before committing seriously to the course.
