Using Tally
Why dense
Accounts roles are judged on accuracy and the systems you know. A compact page with every role and tool listed shows both, and leaves no doubt about dates.
How to fill it
Name the systems (Tally, QuickBooks, Xero, SAP) in Skills and in bullets. Give volumes: invoices a month, entities, payroll headcount, close days. Put qualifications in Certifications with the level.
When to pick another
For senior accountants and controllers, Folio or Ledger give each role more room. For a first job, Campus or Fresher lead with education.
Words to use
The layout is half of it. For the terms recruiters search for, see the keyword lists for business analyst, data analyst and operations manager resumes.
