Accounting Assistant, Orange County CA

High-exposure role supporting the COO with both accounting and operational responsibilities.

The Role

Hands-on role with accounting, financial reporting and analysis

Exposure to operations, HR, and systems

Growth opportunity beyond traditional accounting

Must-Haves –

2–3 years of accounting or finance experience with heavy general ledger experience

Strong Excel skills and attention to detail

Interest in growing into a broader finance/operations role

Pay and Perks –

Excellent salary, commensurate with experience.

Excellent benefits – vacation/sick/personal leave, holidays, medical

Asking for advice – There is an art in asking for advice and maybe these tips will help.

Call during normal business hours. Ask if it’s a good time to talk.

Once you’ve got my attention – LISTEN. Stop talking and start listening and write down the advice I’m giving. I can’t tell you how many people don’t take notes and then expect me to repeat myself again when they call back days later. There is nothing wrong with taking notes – take them!

Be humble, gracious, and polite.

If you don’t like the advice, don’t argue with me about it. You asked – I gave you my opinion. Take it and use it or don’t use it. Or just use what works for you – it’s your job search.

Don’t assume I’m a miracle worker – it’s you who must do the hard work finding a job. Most people don’t get placed by a recruiter -they have to find their own job.
