Senior Accountant Interview Questions

"As a senior accountant, employers are looking for your experience to make you a valuable asset to their company. Thus, interviewers will often ask about the previous duties you had with other employers, what kinds of accounting software you are proficient in, and a few brain teasers that will test your accounting knowledge. In addition, be able to provide examples as to how you work through stressful situations, meet close deadlines, and deal with difficult situations."

Are you going to have any kids? It was ridiculously inappropriate (not to mention illegal). They kept asking me if I was OK with not being promoted. I am not sure what they were trying to communicate with that question, but it was odd. I wasn't looking for immediate promotion but I did want upward mobility opportunities at some point. I don't know why they would want to hire someone with no desire to move up the career ladder.
