“Overall Accountests has highlighted the past weakness in our interview process very well and whilst I already rated your product very highly beforehand, the disconnect that can occur between how candidates interview and their test score was a real eye opener for me personally. Straight away this has saved us the time of second interview and staff cost through recruiting weaker candidates.”

“Your organization is fantastic. I will continue to use your tests for future potential team members.”

Qualified Accountant (Public Practice) Test
The Qualified Accountant (Public Practice) Test
The Qualified Accountant Test is designed for candidates who are qualified members of their relevant professional body, such as ICAEW, IFA, CIMA, ICAS, ACCA or similar overseas professional accounting organisations.
This test assesses accounting knowledge and skills for roles in Public Practice Accounting firms (manager level and below).
This test is country specific to the United Kingdom, with annually updated questions to reflect current taxation rates and financial reporting requirements.
If you're interested in a more industry / commerce related test have a look at the Qualified Accountant (Corporate) Test or the Management Accounting Test. Also see the Part Qualified (Public Practice) Accountant Test for roles requiring a lower level of technical skills.
This test covers four core accounting activities:
- Financial Reporting
- Core Accounting
- Taxation
- Business Advisory
Recruiting managers gain insight into a candidate's skills and knowledge in each of these four activities and identify performance in the activities most relevant to the vacant role, as well as a comparative overall score and performance against a norm group of other qualified accountants.
