Hire Fast With Confidence - Get The Guide

"I highly recommend Accountests to any firm looking to improve its hiring process. This resource has been an invaluable asset to our practice for discernment in hiring candidates. The tests provided by the website give us information that we cannot gather from an interview or a resume alone. It is a missing piece of the hiring process that has saved our firm thousands of dollars by preventing a mis-hire."
Stephanie Anderson EA, CTP - Tax Prose, Inc., CA, USA

"The tests have been very useful, not only in the selection process, but also to test the skills of our current employees in order to determine where they may need additional training. We will definitely be using Accountests again with our next hire."

Test for Hiring External Auditors

The Audit Senior / Audit Manager Test is designed to assess the knowledge and understanding of candidates for roles that focus on auditing external financial statements in public practice accounting firms.

The test will be most appropriate for candidates with at least 2 years audit experience, and up to the level of an Audit Manager with 5 or more years experience.

Test takers do not need to be qualified members of a recognized professional accounting body, but at a minimum, should be working towards qualified membership.

The test covers areas:

Accounting Understanding
Financial Reporting Standards (appropriate for both US GAAP and IFRS)
Analytical Review / Interpretation
Auditing Standards

As the test is designed to assess skills relevant under US GAAP or IFRS, it will be relevant in most countries. However, the test is unlikely to be appropriate for internal auditors, unless their work revolves around financial reporting standards.
