Hi
Article Assistant
Accounting assistants generally work from 9 to 5, 35 hours a week in offices. Usually there is no shift or weekend work. These employees follow a regular, routine set of work activities with some overtime work during busy seasons. These employees often have two to three weeks of vacation a year and receive compnay benefits.
Accounting and related clerks look after their company's money. For example, they pay bills, issue invoices, deposit cheques, and prepare remittances to the provincial and federal government. These employees use computers, faxes and other equipment to do their jobs.
Types of characteristics do Accounting Assistants have:
• Attentive to details
• Able to work with numbers
• Good at organizing
• Able to work by yourself
• Good with managing your time
• Able to work with computers
• Helpful
An articled clerk is an apprentice in a professional firm in India and overseas. Generally the term arises in the accountancy profession and in the legal profession. The articled clerk signs a contract, known as "articles of clerkship", committing to a fixed period of employment. The other party to the contract, the principal, undertakes during this period to provide training and relevant experience in the practice. Note that the contract is with a specific partner in the firm and not the firm as a whole. Nowadays some professions in some countries prefer to call their apprentices "students" or "trainees" (e.g. a trainee solicitor) and the articles of clerkship "training contracts".
