What a strong bookkeeper resume needs

✓ Bullets with numbers: accounts reconciled, errors caught, payments sped up, payrolls run.
✓ Signals of trustworthiness and attention to detail.
✓ Single-column, standard-heading layout so applicant tracking systems parse it cleanly.

Example bullet points

• Reconciled 8 bank and credit accounts monthly with 100% accuracy for a 30-employee firm.
• Cut late payments 40% by setting up automated AR reminders in QuickBooks.
• Processed biweekly payroll for 45 employees with zero errors over 2 years.
