      Accounting Associate Interview

      25 Nov 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Vancouver, BC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bench Accounting (Vancouver, BC) in Nov 2017

      Interview

      Round 1: Applied Online to be Selected Round 2: Phone Interview Round 3: Interview at the Office Round 4: Assignment The interview and application process was very simple but I declined the offer because the pay is way to low where it started at around $33,000 and after pass probation it will increase to $35,0000. The experience Bench could provide will be great for any students interning or on a co-op but in terms on long-term career there does not seem to much of internal or external growth say if you worked there for 2+ years. If you are a new graduate from one of the universities, you're better off starting off as an accounting clerk (ex: very basic A/R and A/P role) in a corporation if you did not succeed in public accounting recruitment season. I am able to imagine the appeal of the so called "start-up" culture Bench offers since you get to work with a bunch of people similar in age range but what is next? Which is I why I decline my offer since the salary is way too low and I don't see long-term growth in skills where it will help me within in the organization or external to the organization. I am do your research, I am so surprised by the background on Linkedin on many associate working here with degrees from UBC Sauder or SFU Beedie. The interviewer really tried to sell the "start-up" experience but I am not drinking that kool-aid
