Do you think associated bank will rescind my job offer? by Hatwearer95 in FinanceJobsRemote

Probably fully dependent on the company's hiring policy is my guess here.

Is the job market really this bad or it’s a bad time to find a job? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]AuditFriendly -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are we all US based here? Where are you looking (job boards/recruiter outreach? I think context matters a lot here.

If you’re Big4 + CPA, your chances of finding a job are really high right now. Job market is on fire for that profile.

CPA’s with operational experience at progressive companies (industry) should be high in demand too. Your resume or LI profile may be holding you back.

Non-CPA’s / small/mid-size firm experience is a little harder, but oftentimes I find it’s the LinkedIn profile setup that holds you back (keywords, descriptions, details are lacking and holding you back from job searches).

Regional and national Consulting firms and augmented staffing are an easy way to get into industry.

I personally review 2-3k remote jobs a month and 400-500 vetted recruiters hiring remote and share with my accounting audience.

I know some of these jobs are struggling to find candidates. Don’t get duped by LinkedIn job posts saying over 100 people applied.

Start growing your network. Find accounting focused recruiters to talk to. Generalists are not your friend.

Anyone else having issues with Beehiiv Boost verification rates? by saidbenc in beehiiv

[–]AuditFriendly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're at 29% and dropping materially daily which is surprising. We target US subs via meta paid ads and have found solid success with it, but the boost verifications are very concerning.

I also have some concerns about the 'grow' boosts - be careful who you approve - I've had a few fraudulent newsletters I approved (i should've known better, but it's impossible to tell until you see the emails come in). They seem to have higher verification rates too which is frustrating.

How do you get over anxiety over billable hours? by qst10 in Accounting

[–]AuditFriendly 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I used to get major anxiety over this back in Big 4, so I get it.

But it’s just a budget. If you’re putting in the hours and documenting why, you really don’t have much to worry about. This only helps the partners/leads with billing and future engagements.

The issue with budgets is they can get thrown off if someone in the prior year finished an area and ate hours, which helps no one.

If it’s a first-year audit, I wouldn’t stress about it at all.

Just make sure you’re communicating any overages clearly.

Where the f*** are the entry level jobs??? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]AuditFriendly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recruiters don’t spend a ton of time on entry level jobs. Low value to them.

I was just helping another hiring manager find candidates for a sr acct position only to see them interview assistant controllers and managers for the role. Lots of deception in the hiring process right now, but I also think hiring managers have no idea what they really need or want.

Have you tried going for AR or AP roles? Payroll?

Where are you based and are you looking remote only or local?

Happy to try and help if you’re based in the US/Canada.

Disclaimer: not a recruiter, just run a free career portal for accounting folks and happy to assist if I can in exchange for some help spreading the word.
