    I passed all 4 exams and I have yet to meet the work experience. I am CA candidate..But I will be moving soon so I may have to transfer to another state.. I wanted to know how should I refer myself on Resume as CPA candidte – Passed all 4 sections.

    Is there any other better way to refer on the Resume about passing all 4 exams?

    I'd stay away from “CPA Candidate” and just put under the education part “passed all 4 sections of CPA exam”. Some states think “CPA candidate” is misleading and implies you've met ALL of the requirements. Some employers don't realize what this means either. Chances are it would be fine to use and nobody would blink but check out this thread, as a tale of caution.

    It looks like some states frowns upon it, especially when you put it on LINKEDIN; but they do make some exceptions for resumes.

    Meh, if you're applying for positions in the finance world, anybody should know what “CPA Candidate” implies; otherwise if you had all requirements met, it should read “CPA Candidate – Licensing in Progress” or something along those lines. If you are in a state where the board feels that hiring professionals are incapable of differentiating, you could put something like “Passed all four sections of the Uniform CPA Examination”

    Hmmm… This has me thinking about my status. I'm also in CA and I am short on units and planning to tackle that after the exam. I currently do not have anything on my resume regarding the exam or CPA candidate. It almost seems it would be misleading if I did.

    FAR - 7/13 - 72, 11/13- 74, 2/14- 82!!! Best score ever (for me)!!!
    BEC - 1/14 - 75!!! Perfect score! First Pass! YAY!!!
    AUD - 8/14 - 80!!!
    REG - 5/14 - 72, 10/14 - 66, 1/15 - 78 - DONE FOREVER!!!
    I did 5 of the UNA and CPAExcel classes to earn units.

    No you definately wouldn't put anything on your resume until you can say which sections you've passed. Then it's appropriate to say passed FAR, AUD, etc.

    FAR- 77
    AUD -49, 71, 84
    REG -56,75!
    BEC -75
