Here is a list of sample questions we found help hiring managers or employers evaluate the candidate’s suitability for an accounting position based on their past performance, technical skills, and professional behaviour. This is based on data research and trends from over 45000+ references. We intend for this to be a starting point for our customers to use and mold their own question sets based on their requirements
