In question number 4 I would have, as a candidate, asked if the equipment was bought on cash or credit. In practice, most equipment is initially bought on credit, especially if it's some expensive equipment.
Am not affordable to buy interview guide ... Am impressed by looking all your video and explanations .... Finally your videos started reaching to us ... Am from India small city difficult to get good training like this 👍❤️ am happy and heartily thank you for your efforts
On the first question, I would have answered 1 ledger, 3 accounts. I refer to the general ledger as where all the accounts are listed. I don't refer to the general ledgers. The basic statement that each bank account has 1, either ledger or account, is the point.
WOW Thank you so much for this guideline. I recently went through a similar question on my previous involvement in resign process for improvement and it was conducted by a machine-based video with limited time for response. I was obviously not ready for that :(
@@anioti8188 Oh you're upset because you didn't notice that option right in front of your face? Even small children know its there. You should be grateful I replied everyone else ignored your question LOL. They said let them figure it out. HAHAHAHAHA
English is not my first language. It is so hard for me to put this knowledge in words for me. Thank you for this video you made, that you have demonstrated to me how I can explain my understanding and knowledge I have during the interview 😊
Q6) Also could be the answer that it should be irrelevant income so we are not allowed to show it as the central part of company activity so we can journal it in temporary ACC. Sometimes it is recognised as an advance paid by the customer.
I think the same. You cannot really accrued an income if the seevice or goods has not been occur in that period. So I suggest you record it as deposits held or BS. This will remain liability to the company until the service or goods has been served.
If you went for accounting interview, check the company background first whether it is a service company or manufacturing company. And job description. Write down the possible accounting technique questions and prepare for that. Best of luck .
Wow!!! This is so helpful! I loved your examples. Especially for me as a second language it’s harder to understand the situation but you give examples so it makes sense.
Your video has given me a guideline. I have asked more difficult questions when I recruit my assistant. He scored 35% which was highest. Starting from simple accounting equation to interpret cash flow to top management.
Hi Bill-This was a question asked to me by my interviewer.Just Sharing and I would like to know the correct answer.Thanks.Prepare complete Journal Entry-Scenario is-My Company's Rent for year 2020 is $120,000/-.I received the invoice from Real Estate on 5th Jan 2020.But I will be paying the entire $120k only on 10 of April-2020.Pass the complete journal entries.

I majored in Finance but I work as an accountant and it’s so hard to keep up with all the accounting rules 😢 I know the basics but every day there’s something new that I don’t understand and need to search it up it’s so frustrating.
I watched the videos and after some interviews, I got a good job offer. They helped in combination with working with the right recruiter and working toward my certification.
I recently went to an interview for Sr. accountant, and was asked about why I left a company after only 5 months as an accountant. I answered honestly, I picked up most of my tasks by myself without training and was doing well, but the management didn't plan to give training on specifics of the industry and the company, and they tried to set up a new set of gl accounts while inactivating those old accounts without training to accountants nor guidelines and this caused delay and confusions and overall messy and stressful situation. But I got the vibe that the new employer didn't like my answer. What else can I say? thank you!
it was a bad answer even it was true. i once resigned from a job because i was overloaded after 4months. the reason i gave was " long commute " or " "family commitment" or anything that not suggesting that you had a bad relationship with the employer.
I Always use the rule: Tell to the interviewer what they want to hear ( but always based on your experiance and your best practices) so do not make any comments that mitgh lead to misinterpretations.. just focus on positive things!! good luck!!
I really enjoy the videos. I need advice on landing a Senior position. I notice many company want Financial Statement experience and I explain that I manage the accounts to the FS. Why am I having a hard time getting the position.
Great video ! You mentioned about an API that you created to facilitate the recording of expenses in quickbooks. In the company I work for, we also use expensify and our accounting software is SAP. I am entering all expenses manually currently. What is this API that I could also implement so that I save time for more important stuff ?
Wow I really like your explanation, which is very helpful! Thank you very much! I have upcoming interview for Fiscal Analyst II with the city and I am very nervous.
Can you help me in answering this interview question? What compliances are in placed for accounts receivable and accounts payable process? Am struck with question asked in many interview questions but not able to answer it. Your help on this would really benefit me ..
I had an interview with a CPA firm in Houston. This old-timer, graduated in 1974, got his CPA license around the same time, asked me a bunch of weird-assed scenarios that led me to conclude his clients were unethical and they should not be in business if any of the sh*t he asked me was going on. But this is Texas for you. Most small and medium business owners think rules do not apply to them.
I attended an interview for a FInance Analyst role and i was asked a questions. "If they were to invest in buying 10 trucks for haulage, what will be estimations and analysis that needs to be done for consideration and decision and how will you approach this? I answered but not satisfactory enough. How do i answer this question?
These are scenario based thought provoking questions that will let the recruiter know not about just the knowledge of candidate but also how they can apply it. Nice. And here we have these stupid ass questions, "your company bought an asset, pass the double entry" OR what is depreciation?
Your videos are very useful, thank you. I want to improve myself in the field of IFRS reporting. Is there a resource you can recommend for this? I miss many job opportunities that I want to apply because I have no experience and knowledge.
Yesterday I attended one interview, they ask 1.A client dealing with heavy equipment company,how you value the fixed asset 2.Our client dealing with building materials ,at the end of the year how it affect in the inventory, can u please explain the answer sir
Hello, I’ve watched a few of your videos and I’m loving them, learning so much. My question is, what would be interview questions for a university bursar?
Hi. I would say questions around keeping organized. So talk about checklists and taking good notes. Maybe the use is tech like like a spreadsheet or Google Tasks to keep track of action items. You get the point. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing! My questions always have been"answered" during the interview discussions, so I could not find questions to ask the hiring managers before the end of the conversation. Can I just say:" I have no any questions"? Also is it professional to say:" Thanks for having me!" or " Thanks for inviting me to the interview!"?
Good video! in the Q4 I would ask the interviewer whether in the scenario you pay for the equipment at the moment or you have X margin of days to pay it, and then answer the question.
if i just changed career from other to accounting and finished BA in accounting. i m 53 now. How i can get hire which accounting job should i apply? as jr accounting? or staff accounting.
