"Our team used Accountest as an assessment tool for all our existing Senior Account Managers. Not only were we able to evaluate their current skillset and determine their “grinder”, “minder” or "finder" mindset or personality, we used the evaluation as a launching point to start coaching them to become the best accountant possible in their particular setting and style. Great service and fantastic results that we can use now and in the future during recruitment of new team members!"
Jane Lyall, Chief of Staff - Streamline Accounting

"If you want to scale your accounting firm business you need to be confident in the people you bring on to the team. Accountests has been a great help in giving our members this assurance during the recruitment process whether they are hiring locally or remotely"
Brenton Ward - CEO and Cofounder - WIZE, AU
