tell them you can do payroll, but you still want to get your designation as well. You can get both CPA and CGA, why not?

If I were her, I would say yes. Let the company pay both tuition, get CPA and pass all CGAs (it takes 3 or 6 months),then talk to the manager "I pass CGA and would like to take more challenge" if he says "no, stick with payroll". I will then look for another job but this time, I am a CGA finalist (if it is the correct name) with CPA.
If the manager can easily swich her accounting roll to payroll and finally remove that position, it implies the accounting job she is currently doing is totally disposable and add few value to her PERC assessment.

if the current / past accounting related (non-payroll) experience she gained in this company would not meet the CGA requirement, I doubt a full time payroll experience will do.

no, it won't either. therefore, I think she can said yes to keep what she has now (CGA tuition) and to get something extra (payroll certificate),then ask for more (moving to senior level after she pass all CGA courses and gets CPA, if step 2 does not succeed, she can leave but with CGA courses and CPA (not paid by herself.). I do not think her boss will say no in step 1. Normally, if you ask someone to give up something (ask a CGA student gives up accounting job), you had better prepare to give something else (keep paying her CGA tuition) to compensate.

能问一下,你说怎么找到第一份payroll 工作的吗?我马上要从accounting&Payroll program 毕业,其实我更想做payroll,因为不打算再考CGA什么的了。可是看了招聘广告,accounting还有几个工作不是一定要experience, payroll的至少都要一年经验。怎么办呢,找中介吗?

1.if you don't a plan to leave, then say yes.
2. Then talk to the boss that you are now in the completion stage of CGA which requires more extensiveexperience beyond payroll, so you would like to be exposed to such experience in the future when such chance present in the company.
