Welcome to the Escaping the Accountants Trap podcast, a resource designed to liberate accountants, CPAs, and bookkeepers from the notorious 'accountant's trap.' This frustrating predicament often sees professionals toil endlessly with demanding clients for meager compensation. But fear not, as this podcast unveils the escape route. In this episode, we explore the critical strategy of thoroughly assessing prospective team members through testing before hiring, ensuring you welcome the right individuals aboard.

In this episode, we welcome Giles Pearson, the CEO of Account Test, a solution dedicated to enhancing the hiring process for accountants.

Giles Pearson, with his extensive background in public accounting, provides invaluable insights into this innovative approach.
