Transcript

Okay looking at other types of interview then well other types of interview include the telephone or video call. And this is usually a first stage interview where there's a lot of people on the possible list and they want to weed out some. So if you are interviewed by telephone or video, be careful about the backdrop. You probably don't want your posters of Wham and Spandau Ballet on the wall behind you when you're doing a video interview. If being interviewed by telephone, be careful of the dog sitting off barking, or other noises within the area that you're at. Online questionnaires are also fairly common as a first stage interview.

You might be asked to submit written responses to scenarios and situational type questions. Again, that will be normally to weed out the people who who clearly have experience from those that perhaps don't have experience of those types of areas. personality and aptitude questionnaires are often posed. online as well now, and you just have to go with those they've they've means of spotting cheating, so just answer, honestly. And you may be asked to an assessment center that will often happen after the first stage interview. There was a piece on the radio fairly recently about AI interviews as well being used in recruitment.

Never experienced that myself. I don't think it's common, but I guess it could come more in the future. Typical accounting interview questions. I've rehearsed some typical accounting interview questions in another section of this course. But the sorts of things that you're likely to be faced with include, what do you consider to be the main challenge facing the accounting profession? What changes do you think will most impact on accountancy in the coming years?

Which accounting applications are you familiar with? What are their advantages or disadvantages? describe an accounting process that you've developed or improved Questions include describe a time when you helped to reduce costs. Describe a time when you had to present financial information. How did you do it? What is your experience with KPIs or dashboards?

Describe a time when you had to explain a complex accounting issue to someone without an accounting background. How did you help your audience understand the situation? As I said, there's another section of this course, where I've rehearsed some interview questions. So have a look at that when you're ready.
