Hiring for Integrity: Building Your Dream Accounting Team


Listen Later

Fletcher Wimbush from Discovered.AI joins the show to tackle one of the biggest challenges facing CPA firms today: finding and hiring quality talent. Fletcher shares his proven interviewing techniques, including the career performance history interview, strategic reference checking, and assessment tools that help predict candidate success. Learn why integrity trumps experience, how to compress your hiring timeline to just five days, and why becoming an "employer of choice" requires more than just offering remote work options.
