Hey everyone 👋 I'm updating my accountant resume and not getting callbacks. 3 years of experience in accounts payable + QuickBooks + Excel. What am I missing?

First question — is your accountant resume achievement-based or just task-based?
Instead of:
“Managed accounts payable”
Try:
“Processed 350+ invoices monthly with 99.8% accuracy and reduced payment delays by 18%.”
Numbers matter A LOT.

Agree. Also make sure your resume is ATS friendly. Most accounting roles filter by keywords like:
GAAP
Reconciliation
Financial reporting
Variance analysis
Month-end close
ERP systems
If these aren't there, you may be auto-rejected.

Not an accountant, but ATS formatting killed me once. Make sure:
• no tables
• no graphics
• no weird columns
• simple font
Clean structure wins.

Does format matter much? One page vs two pages?
