3 Keys to Hiring Top Accounting Talent: As the founder of Mefford Recruiting, I've helped countless accounting firms attract and hire exceptional candidates. Based on that experience, here are my top 3 tips for successful accounting recruitment: 1. 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬  - Top candidates are evaluating multiple opportunities. Having an efficient and structured hiring process shows your organizational competence. Map out the steps, decision points, and stakeholders involved upfront to avoid delays. 2. 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 - Top accounting professionals have options, so you need to sell them on why your firm is the best choice. Highlight your culture, growth potential, clients, and what makes your opportunity unique. Get them excited about the role. 3. 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝 - Even after a candidate accepts, they may continue getting other offers. Stay in close communication, reiterate why they made the right choice, and make them feel valued. A personal touch goes a long way in preventing last-minute remorse. Hiring is a huge challenge for accounting firms.

I’m reading Who by Geoff Smart and Randy Street so that I can improve our hiring strategy. My takeaways so far: 1. Knowing what to do isn’t enough if you aren’t contributing to the outcome. For ex: knowing how to compile financials vs delivering financials on time to clients. Can’t have one without the other. Both are important to the role. 2. To some extent, you should always be recruiting. You never know when an A player will come along. This is something I have to get better at. I tend to only talk about hiring or working with us when we’re looking for someone new. This has not served me well. 3. Stop settling for B and C players. While it may seem like a role is needed immediately, investing the time up front screen and properly gather data on candidates will help weed out those who are not A players. We’re hiring for a crucial team member and the principles in this book have been very helpful. My hope is that through our refined process we’re able to find a strong Senior Accountant to support our client delivery process.

Good afternoon network, I have noticed an increasing number of clients requesting contract support, particularly in Accounting & Finance. In today's fast-paced world, flexibility is key - and that's exactly what contractors bring to the table. 🌟 Here's why hiring contractors could be a game-changer for your business: **1. Expert Skills On Demand:** Contractors are professionals in their fields. They jump in with their specialised skills just when you need them. **2. Cost Efficiency:** With contractors, you pay for the expertise without the long-term commitment. This means you can manage your budget more effectively and avoid the overheads associated with permanent hires, you pay them for the hours they work. **3. Flexibility and Adaptability:** Contractors can quickly adapt to your business's needs, if the project takes longer than expected, you can extend them. There is also the benefit of "try before you buy" for both you and the candidate, should there be a permanent role on offer. **4. Fresh Perspectives:** Contractors work across various industries, are used to picking up new systems and fitting into new environments. They may also may have fresh ideas on streamlining processes etc.. **5. No Strings Attached:** When the job's done, contractors move on to their next role. Hiring contractors is more than just getting the help you need - it's about enjoying the added benefit of flexibility, expertise, and innovative thinking to your team. 🚀 Have I missed anything? #ContractingBenefits #BusinessFlexibility #ExpertiseOnDemand #buildingbetterfutures #accountingcontracts
