Tips for Your Accountant Job Search
Tailor your resume to each niche
Public accounting resumes should lead with audit or tax engagement experience and client industry breadth. Corporate roles want close cycles, ERP systems, and variance analysis. Swap the emphasis depending on where you're applying so reviewers see relevant depth immediately.
List your certifications prominently
Your CPA status, progress toward it, or a CMA credential belongs near the top of your resume, not buried in a footer. Many hiring managers filter on licensure before reading anything else, so make your credentials visible in the first third of the page.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists accountant openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Name the software you actually use
SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, QuickBooks, and Sage are screened in applicant tracking systems before a human reads your file. List every platform you've worked in, including the specific modules, rather than grouping them under a vague label like 'accounting software.'
Prepare for a technical screening round
Many accounting interviews include a written case or Excel test covering journal entries, accruals, or a reconciliation exercise. Practice working through a multi-step close schedule under a time limit so the format doesn't slow you down on the day.
Negotiate start date around busy season
Public accounting firms and corporate finance teams have hard blackout periods around year-end close and tax deadlines. Proposing a start date that avoids those windows signals awareness of the calendar and removes a common objection to extending an offer quickly.
Accountant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most accountants?
The companies hiring the most accountants right now include KPMG, JPMorganChase, and EisnerAmper, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. Demand is especially concentrated in firms with active audit and advisory practices and in corporations approaching a fiscal year-end.
How many accountant jobs are remote?
About 25% of accountant openings are fully remote or hybrid as of June 2026, though availability varies widely by function. Tax preparation, financial reporting, and accounts payable roles tend to offer the most remote flexibility, while audit positions that require on-site client fieldwork are more likely to stay in-person or hybrid.
How do you become an accountant?
Start by earning a bachelor's degree in accounting or a related field, which covers foundational topics like financial reporting, taxation, and auditing. Most employers and all CPA licensing boards require additional coursework to reach the required credit hours, so plan for that early. Passing all four sections of the CPA exam then qualifies you for licensure in your state, which opens the door to senior roles in public and corporate accounting.
Can you get an accountant job with little or no experience?
Yes, entry-level accountant roles exist specifically for candidates coming out of school or changing careers. Internship experience at a public accounting firm or in a corporate finance department carries the most weight, but bookkeeping work, volunteer tax preparation through programs like VITA, and strong academic performance in accounting coursework are all recognized substitutes. Targeting staff accountant or accounts payable roles is the most direct path in.
What does the accountant interview process look like?
Most accounting interviews follow a structured sequence: an initial phone or video screen with a recruiter, a technical round with the hiring manager covering accounting concepts and software proficiency, and a final panel interview with senior staff or partners. Many firms add a written case or Excel exercise between the technical and panel stages. The full process typically runs over several weeks, with public accounting firms moving faster during recruiting season.
Where can I find and apply to accountant jobs?
You can find and apply to accountant jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search for roles that match your experience level and specialization, then apply directly to each listing that fits.
