We are seeking experienced General Ledger and Reporting Accountants (Senior Staff Accountants) to provide expert insight as part of a project for our AI Marketplace. No preparation required - just your real-world experience.

What You'll Do You'll complete a ~45-minute recorded AI-led video interview where you explain how you actually do your work in practice.

This interview will focus on:

• How you reconcile cash, balance sheet, and subledger accounts each close cycle
• How you prepare adjusting journal entries and other close support
• How you prepare financial statements and management reporting packages
• How you maintain the chart of accounts and accounting record structure

You will be asked to explain workflows specifically within: month-end and quarter-end close, from reconciliations and journal entries through financial statement issuance and chart-of-accounts governance.

You should only apply if you can confidently walk through these areas step-by-step based on your own experience and respond to AI-led interview questions with depth, clarity, and real-world examples.

• 5+ years in general ledger accounting, close management, and financial reporting
• Direct, hands-on experience in month-end and quarter-end close, from reconciliations and journal entries through financial statement issuance and chart-of-accounts governance
• Experience making or influencing decisions related to reconciling-item materiality, journal-entry support requirements, reporting variance thresholds, and chart-of-accounts changes

• Strong ability to clearly explain workflows, decisions, and reasoning
• Experience owning or directly executing these workflows in a real production environment
• Experience working in a relevant cross-functional environment

About the Interview The interview is designed to elicit step-by-step explanations of real workflows and decision-making processes, with an emphasis on detailed, experience-based responses rather than high-level summaries.

This is a project-based engagement. Selected participants will be paid for completing a recorded AI-led video interview; hourly rates are estimates based upon anticipated time of completion. Participants will control their own schedule, provide their own tools to complete the interview, and may participate in other opportunities as they choose.

Once you complete the interview, we'll send your video recording and transcript, along with AI-generated insights, to the internal research team and AI lab partner. This data will be used to generate a structured list of tasks associated with your profession and for AI model improvement.
