      Strategic Accountant- Accounts Receivable Interview

      20 May 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Dayton, OH
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ChemStation (Dayton, OH) in May 2025

      Interview

      Interview process ° Step 1 Phone interview ° Step 2 4 panel interview. ° Step 3 another 4 panel interview, but be informed of only 2. Fantastic feedback on first 2 interviews. During the 3rd interview, interviewed with 2 folks that had nothing to do with the position. 1 individual that was involved in the first panel and a potential co worker. The first 2 interviews really did go well, the rapport was great, met with Amy (Director of Finance) , Evan (CFO), Matt (Sales Manager) and Jennifer (Accounting Manager) the first round. (I was provided there information in advance) Had valid preparation time, was confident. The third interview was a plot twist, I met with 2 individuals I don't recall the name of? There was no expectation sent over for the interview. Just that a third interview would need to take place and that it was with 2 individuals. Evan (CFO) was the creator of the event. This interview was structured poorly, my understanding is Evan should have been there but they passed me on to these folks instead. Questions in the beginning were basic, then there was questions I wasn't prepared for, what was the revenue of so and so company. That information wouldn't be necessary for me. 1. I didn't manage the over all- revenue in receivables I only managed the recurring collection of around 7 million per month. That question didn't pertain to the position I was applying for. Accounts Receivable is an asset account not revenue. 2. A question was asked: what major decisions have you made this year? Well I moved too a much more expensive house and too me that is a major decision. How does that pertain to my success in this position? 3. If you had an elephant but couldn't keep the elephant what would you do with that elephant? I said I would rent out that elephant and make a profit out of it while I could. And then I moved into explaining how I would transition that into a cyber truck rental business. (Ice breaker) Apparently they didn't like that. Moving on to question #4 Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow is the following problem: (1) A bat and a ball cost $1.10 in total. The bat costs $1.00 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost? _____ cents. Here's the feedback on the article for this: Almost everyone we ask reports an initial tendency to answer “10 cents” because the sum $1.10 separates naturally into $1 and 10 cents, and 10 cents is about the right magnitude Answer is wrong overall it's 0.05 Let's continue the feedback for this interview shall we. After they have thrown everything they have at me. This portion of the interview ends. Jennifer (Accounting Manager) and her right hand Danielle (Strategic Account Manager) walk in and we throw around ideas for a while, it's a good vibe, seems more like a casual get 2 know you. The interview once again is going great, I ask a lot of questions regarding struggles that they see, trying to fish for the day 2 day life information in this position. The struggles they see others face, easy mistakes they make, I even made a recommendation on how to navigate there emails more efficiently. They wrote it down, explained that's a great idea, wish we had thought of that a year ago. (Real indication of getting the job in my eyes) Cool I'm already contributing to a more efficient work place. I love it when that works out and I can use my innovation. They ask what can I contribute? I'm definitely aware that they need adaptability and I have a strong history of navigating change that seems like a very validating response. There going through a lot of change and people stuck in there old ways are a struggle for them, there losing people because of it. I'm not afraid of change or a challenge. They phrase things as: when your in here, how you will be trained, indicating you got this job girl, you made it. We'll get your information over to Amy(Director of Finance) she'll be in contact with the recruiting agency. Just to get a denial the next day. I don't recommend wasting your time.
