Accounting technician job

This discussion explores the meaning and required qualifications for an Accounting Technician job. The original poster expresses confusion over differing definitions, with some HR departments overseas and in KPOs apparently equating the role to a B.Com or ACCA diploma, while dismissing bookkeeping and ERP experience. There's a frustration that specialised accounting degrees like MSC GAAP are overlooked, and a query about complaining about overseas HR practices. The conversation touches on the dominance of ERP systems and the perceived devaluation of higher education in the current job market.
