About Candidate
My name is Evans Quaye, and I’m writing to apply for the accountant position in your firm. As a graduate of Accra Technical University with over 30 months of experience, I’m ready to apply the accounting and financial training I gained while earning my bachelor’s degree to optimize the organization’s bookkeeping and reporting process. I’ve always loved numbers, and I’m enthusiastic about the chance to work with the accountants and financial professionals at your firm.
I believe my practical experience in accounting software, business and organization makes me an ideal candidate for this position. Along with my proficiency in programs like QuickBooks and Microsoft Excel, my computer skills and penchant for learning quickly would help me in mastering your firm’s internal and external applications right away. In my time as an accountant, I learned the importance of paying close attention to detail and was able to increase documentation accuracy by 50%.
I’m currently working on becoming a Certified Public Accountant. I’m confident that this certification and my experience have prepared me to join the team. I’m looking forward to meeting you in person to further discuss my qualifications for the role. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, and thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Evans Quaye
