Accounting Interviews

Accounting Interview Questions

Accounting is the backbone of the financial market, so be prepared to answer questions about your technical experience and detail-oriented work ethic. Employers may ask you to answer an analytical accounting question, tell a story that highlights your Excel skills, or solve a math brain teaser. As you move up in accounting, be aware that employers often expect more advanced degrees, which may include a Masters or CPA (Certified Public Accountant) certification.

Interviews were not very structured - one manager talked a lot about himself and his own experience (I could barely get a word in sideways) and was very friendly, the other was very unfriendly and seemed to fancy himself as some type of stoic which wasn't very impressive. They mainly just talked a lot and gave me a mix of behavioral and just a few technical scenarios - they didn't do a full tech screen or really dive into my technical background. It felt like a good cop, bad cop situation. The stoic manager seemed to have it out for me right from the beginning and wouldn't even give me to time to answer some questions. He was not a pleasant person and I got a bad vibe from him almost immediately.
