Free resume checker for finance professionals in Australia

A finance resume is read for qualifications, systems and the size of what you were responsible for. Precision is part of the message, so errors and loose wording cost more here than elsewhere.

What the free check looks at

Resume Audit

Scores the resume itself, whatever the job. It looks at three things.

Impact and evidence. Numbers, outcomes rather than duties, and the scale of what you handled.
Clarity and writing. Strong action verbs, no filler, and how easily it can be scanned.
Structure and ATS. Contact details, employer, title and dates on every role, and clean text an applicant tracking system can read.

Role Match

Compares the resume with a role and level you choose.

Skills and tools for the role, named the way employers name them.
Evidence of how you work. Claims such as "team player" score nothing without an example.
Level fit and experience. Scope, progression, and how relevant and recent your work is.

You also get your biggest single fix first, then the open roles that fit your resume. You can upload a PDF or paste the text.

What a strong resume for finance professionals needs

Qualifications and memberships with their status, for example CPA Australia or Chartered Accountants ANZ, completed or in progress.
The systems you use, named exactly: your ERP or accounting package, Excel skills, reporting tools.
Scale: number of entities, ledger or transaction volumes, budget or revenue size, who you reported to.
Process results: month-end close shortened, reconciliations automated, audit findings cleared, forecast accuracy improved.
Compliance work stated plainly, such as BAS and GST lodgement, payroll tax, audit support or financial reporting standards.
Study and work in date order, with every role showing employer, title and dates.

Mistakes to avoid

Listing 'Excel' with no sign of what you did in it.
Describing responsibilities without the size of the numbers handled.
Mixing tenses and inconsistent formatting, which reads as lack of care in this field.
Qualifications with no status, so the reader cannot tell if they are finished.

If a figure is confidential, give a range or a proportion rather than leaving the scale out.

Questions

Is it really free?
Yes. Scoring your resume is free and needs no card. Paid plans add more tools, but the check and your scores are free.
What is an ATS?
An applicant tracking system is the software many employers use to collect and sort applications. The check flags things that can make a resume harder for one to read, such as missing dates or a layout that does not read as plain text.
Will a high score get me an interview?
No score can promise that. It shows how clearly your resume presents your impact and fit, which are things you can improve. Employers decide who they interview.
What can I upload?
A PDF, or paste the text of your resume.
