Situational Questions
Posted by Administrator on Jan 30, 2009
Your interviewer would more or less be sure to present you with situational questions that will check for your accounting problem solving skills. If you happen to have little or no experience in a presented question, say so and the interviewer may present you with a different question. If not, answer best you can for if you know your job, as we said, accounting is a very technical field which typically has the same principles that vary with their application. Questions regarding your job experience would also bring out your weak points so give all answers as accurate as possible. Never and we do mean never guess, for the one interviewing you may also be an accountant. For procedural questions, they would challenge your mastery of your skills in preparing spreadsheets, balance sheets and other information sets where you base your analysis of the cash flow presented. Your results may be challenged for real on-paper testing which they can choose to give you to see if you have the necessary skills for information presentation and analysis.
