What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in AP/AR specialist jobs.
- Two or more years of experience in accounts payable, accounts receivable, or a combined AP/AR role
- Proficiency in at least one major ERP or accounting platform such as SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or QuickBooks
- Strong knowledge of invoice processing, three-way matching, and payment reconciliation workflows

Tips for Your AP/AR Specialist Job Search
Quantify your close-cycle contributions
Hiring managers want to see the volume you've handled, not just your duties. On your resume, state how many invoices you processed weekly, what error rates you maintained, or how much you reduced days sales outstanding in a previous role.
List the ERP systems you know
AP/AR roles are filtered by software. Name every system you've used, SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Microsoft Dynamics, directly on your resume. Vague phrases like 'accounting software' get screened out before a human ever reads your application.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists ap/ar specialist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by billing model
AP/AR work varies sharply between high-volume transactional shops and complex contract-billing environments. Read each posting for clues like 'high invoice volume,' 'revenue recognition,' or 'intercompany reconciliation' and tailor your resume's bullet points to mirror that exact language.
Prepare a reconciliation walkthrough for interviews
Many ap/ar specialist interviews include a scenario where you explain how you'd investigate a discrepancy between the subledger and the general ledger. Practice a step-by-step verbal answer so you can deliver it without hesitation when the question comes up.
Negotiate start date around month-end close
If you receive an offer near a month-end or quarter-end close, propose a start date after the cycle closes. It signals that you understand the job's rhythm and prevents you from walking into your first week at the worst possible time.
AP/AR Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most ap/ar specialists?
BDO, KSI, and AJAB are hiring the most ap/ar specialists right now, with openings concentrated in California, Florida, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to be highest at companies undergoing rapid growth, acquisitions, or ERP migrations.
How many ap/ar specialist jobs are remote?
About 25% of ap/ar specialist openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with remote availability concentrated in accounts receivable and billing roles rather than those requiring physical invoice handling or check processing. Companies that have migrated to cloud-based ERP systems tend to offer the most location flexibility.
How do you become an ap/ar specialist?
Start by completing an associate or bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or business administration. Build foundational skills in bookkeeping or general accounting through entry-level clerk or accounting assistant roles. Gain hands-on experience with an ERP system, learn month-end close procedures, and develop fluency in invoice processing and reconciliation before applying to specialist-level positions.
How do you get hired as an ap/ar specialist with little experience?
Focus on roles titled accounts payable clerk, billing coordinator, or accounting assistant, which are common entry points into ap/ar work. Demonstrate proficiency in spreadsheet tools and any accounting software you've used, even in a coursework or volunteer context. Emphasize attention to detail and accuracy in your resume, since hiring managers in ap/ar prioritize error-free work over years of experience at the junior level.
What does the ap/ar specialist interview process look like?
Most ap/ar specialist interviews begin with a phone screen focused on your ERP experience and volume of transactions you've handled. A hiring manager interview typically follows, covering reconciliation scenarios, how you handle discrepancies, and your familiarity with month-end close. Some employers add a short written exercise where you review a sample aging report or identify an error in a mock invoice batch.
Where can I find and apply to ap/ar specialist jobs?
