I had quite a few interviews with different mid-sized to large public accounting firms, but a phone interview rarely resulted in a live interview, and I never got any offers so far. I have no idea what they are looking for…
I worked two tax seasons as a Tax Prep for small accounting firms. I worked full-time while in college, and I’ve been working for a little more than a year as a Staff Accountant for quite a large company where I deal with all kinds of financial accounting issues all the time. I passed FAR and REG, taking AUD in couple days.
Resume-wise I should be in pretty good shape. In my cover letter I mention that passed those CPA parts. So, tax + fin. accounting experience = should be ideal for midsized accounting firms, where accountants do both, audits and taxes. What the hell? I am just curious. I am originally from another country, and I do have an accent, but it’s not thick. Maybe that’s the issue. Because the recruiters say that their ideal candidates should have PERFECT communication skills. That’s the only reason I could think of. Anybody? Anybody have any experience working with people who have accents???
