Registered Posts: 94 Regular contributor ⭐
I'll be starting my my first job in accountancy soon as an Accounts Assistant for a local firm. Has anyone got any advice on certain areas I could do with refreshing ready for my first week?
I'm currently studying Level 4 and I have a few hazy patches from Level 2 & 3 due to studying them around a year ago. I'm worried I'll have forgotten some of the basics!
Some requirements I've picked up so far is VAT returns, reconciling bank accounts/sales ledgers, SAGE, and making adjustments(?).
Any help at all is appreciated, even if it's an obvious area.

First of all.. Congratulations!!!
I think if you just read through some of your old books, it should all come flooding back to you Accruals is a good thing to know a lot about, can't really think of much else.
Good Luck, let me know how your first day goes!0 -

Well done Makkusu.

Depending if your job involves doing final accounts, looking at ETB, Income statements & statement of financial position may help.0
