Q. Explain about Staff accountant?
Let us travel with Tracy as she begins her career at the staff level. At the onset, she works directly under a senior accountant on each of her audits and is responsible for completing audits and administrative tasks assigned to her. Her duties comprise documenting work papers interacting with client accounting staff or clerical tasks and discussing questions that arise with her senior. Tracy will work on dissimilar audit engagements during her first year and learn the firm's audit approach. She will be introduced to a variety of industries and accounting systems. The two most significant traits to be demonstrated at the staff level are a positive attitude and the ability to learn quickly while adapting to unfamiliar situations.
