Frequently Asked
Question:
How to Hire Me?
1
Communicate your need
When you are looking for fractional/interim accounting service, clearly communicate the responsibilities, timeframe, and expectations for the role. Identify the specific tasks, projects, and goals.
To determine if a project fits my profile, I usually need five details:
- Timeframe (project start and end dates)
- Time commitment (days/week or hours/day/week)
- Work mode (on-site, hybrid 1-2 days, hybrid 3-5 days, or remote)
- High-level job description (4-5 main tasks)
- Compensation range (your budget, open to negotiation)
2
Connect and align
If both parties are interested, we begin the next steps toward an engagement. This process can take 24 hours to several weeks:
- First contact: Our initial touchpoint is usually a (video) call to get to know each other (30-60 minutes).
- Information exchange: We may exchange additional information as needed.
- Second meeting: We agree on a follow-up video call or in-person meeting. Please note, the interim market moves quickly for both sides. Two or three interviews/assessments are typically the maximum. Shortened probation periods and trial runs mitigate hiring risks.
- Engagement letter: We exchange a draft engagement letter with terms and conditions, then discuss, align, and finalize it.
- Start date: I commence work in accordance with the signed engagement letter.
