u/francha795 Controller - CPA 14h ago

Some things that caught my eye:

  1. (Staff accountant job in the middle) How did you improve gross profit margin reporting by 15%? I think it would help explaining the why for anyone who reads it.

  2. Did you discuss the Income Statements that you would distribute with the partnership leaders? Maybe adding the fact that you had back and forth communication with leadership could help as well.

  3. Were you a champion of anything during your jobs? I see that you created amortization trackers for revenue contracts. If that was something that you did by your own accord you can always spin it like "championed the utilitzation of standard amortization schedules for service contracts to ensure consistent and accurate documentation" or something along the lines of that.

  4. With regards to the fixed asset backlog, I think mentioning the impact that reducing the backlog had would be nice.

As a rule of thumb at least for me, always try to say what the impact of what you do is. If I reduced the audit timeline by x months, then how does that affect the business? Does it save money, time, resources, etc.
