The annual financial statements are prepared by accountants: how to choose the right accountant?
What should be the perfect accountant? What accountants are looking to work? Should be young or mature, serious and with a sense of humor? What features should have your potential future employee?
Announcement of offer of work is stressful for both the candidate for this job, and for employers, who faces a considerable dilemma to decide to entrust part of their business to a new employee. Yes, yes - exactly entrust: every employee is an integral member of the company where he is employed.
What, then, as decision-makers or recruiters when choosing the person working in accounting? Accounting is one of the most important departments in the company. Book, however, is implemented in the finance unit .
Is the interview pay attention to the appearance candidate? Is the impact on the final decision is neat and appropriate attire: a tailored suit or a suit, or irrelevant matter of dress, makeup and hairstyle? It is said that " clothes do not make the man." But on the other hand, if our outward appearance does not indicate a relation to another human being? Do the right dress does not in some measure of respect for our speaker?
And what about the age of the employee? It is true that we made already about this here: but it is worth re- ask the question: do we focus on the young man or the employee has experienced?
What are the questions frequently ask in an interview? Do they concern only issues of content or you also interested in behavioral issues? Maybe for loosening the atmosphere and get to know the caller you are interested in the hobby and passion candidate?
Do you choose the candidates open, with no small sense of humor, or rather the serious poker-faced - because that fits the stereotypical image of an accountant? The first of them will make the atmosphere in the office is light and pleasant, and it will contribute to more effective cooperation. On the other hand, the serious man can show his talent to unite themselves - or in your office atmosphere is so light that it could do with someone who arouse awe?
What about employee loyalty? After all, this is very important . By hiring an accountant, entrust it to some extent, the strategy of your company, a detailed understanding of your customers, information on the matters in dispute... Their exposure to competition is dangerous. How to verify the prospective employee loyalty? Is this only indicates the amount of the places of previous employment on your resume? Or rather, are applying in this issue is the purely behavioral questions?
What do you expect the employee? Are you ready to pay slightly higher salaries in exchange for a more experienced person , or rather reduces these costs and they will be a decisive factor?
As you can see - the choice is simple. In any case, remember the one golden rule : every time the choice prospective employee is an individual matter and thus need to approach each person. Then you will take the right decision!
