I am getting some people who want to join my office and claim they are experienced corporate preparers. I have managed to screen many out by speaking to them, but still some know a little and can BS, but have been disappointing when actually doing prep work. I use the Quickfinder 8 hr CPE exam for screening Individual Tax Prep newhires, but Quickfinder doesn’t have one for Corporate 1120/1120S/1065… what do you folks use to quickly determine if the applicant has the skills they claim? I want an objective standard like the 1040 open book Quickfinder 40 question test.
I often get “experienced” preparers who with the Quickfinder and an hour score a 30%, which saves me a lot of trouble and time interviewing people who aren’t qualified.I am searching for a similar ascertainable standard for Corporate, does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Marc
