What Happens After You Apply
After submitting your application, you’ll receive an email invitation from Spark Hire to record a short 3–5 minute Intro Video. This is the first step in our hiring process and can be completed whenever it’s convenient for you.
Rather than repeating your experience across multiple screening calls, you’ll have one opportunity to introduce yourself, discuss your accounting background, explain your experience with accounts receivable, invoicing, QuickBooks, financial reporting, and share examples of how you’ve improved accounting processes or supported operational efficiency. Your video will be reviewed by the hiring team before moving to the client interview.
You can record your video as many times as you’d like before submitting it—only your final version will be reviewed.
Please keep an eye on both your inbox and spam folder for your Spark Hire invitation after applying.
