A great resume gives employers additional reasons to want to learn more about an applicant. Examples of how you can develop a more appealing, well-rounded resume are as follows:

IFRS or International Financial Reporting Standards, to give it its full name, is gradually starting to gain momentum. Today alone, I’ve seen ads in newspapers, heard about it on the radio, and the internet is rife with information on this topic.

In order to report 2010 comparatives in your 2011 financial statements, you’ll need to have captured IFRS data throughout 2010. That being said, your starting point for 2010 is your 2009 closing position. Hmm...that’s not far away at all! Are you going to be ready?
