Tips from recruiters
List licences and qualifications (CPA, CFA, bar admission) prominently; they are often hard filters.
Use a conservative, single-column layout; finance and legal readers value precision over style.
Quantify the scale you handled: revenue, assets, deal value or number of matters.
