Happy Sunday!
I want to land a job in public accounting so I can get some good experience on my resume and I was wondering what the best way to apply for these said jobs are. Currently I work in government doing Accounting work (its kinda like Budget Accounting) and we use an internal government system to do all the accounting. I know that public firms probably don’t care too much for government experience because it is a system all of its own.
I have been at government for about 2 years now and previously to be there I helped my friend who is a CPA with taxes for his clients for 1 tax season, so I have that on my resume as well. I guess the only other note worthy think on my resume is the fact that I have top secret gov’t clearance. I am pretty good with software including all microsoft products, SAP, quickbooks and some tax software as well. Also I have to mention my GPA was pretty low in undegrad- 2.8/4.
Would I be able to add something to my resume that could help me with the job search and also what’s the best way to apply to these jobs, I hear they hire people around this time for the following year. I know I wouldn’t be able to go in Big4, but any public firm would do really.
Any advice would greatly be appreciated, thanks a bunch!
