The hiring problem

Tax recruiting is too specialized for generic resume forwarding.

CPA firms need tax candidates who understand the work, can handle the client-service pace, communicate clearly, and fit the team. A resume alone rarely tells you that.

Better screening creates better conversations for firms and candidates.

What slows firms down

  • Tax resumes that look similar, but differ heavily in actual technical depth
  • Candidates with unclear motivation, timing, or compensation expectations
  • Too much partner and manager time spent screening for basic fit
  • Recruiters who do not understand public accounting tax work
  • Strong candidates accepting other offers before the process moves

What your firm actually needs

You need fewer, better candidate conversations with more context before the interview.

  • Tax experience that fits the role
  • Cleaner notes before interviews
  • Compensation expectations discussed early
  • Candidate interest confirmed before submission
The RezzyCheck difference

CPA-led recruiting built for tax teams.

RezzyCheck helps CPA firms identify, screen, and engage tax professionals with a process built around how public accounting hiring actually works.

CPA-led screening

Candidates are evaluated by a CPA who understands tax experience, client service expectations, technical depth, and team fit.

Clear candidate notes

You receive practical notes on experience, motivation, compensation, timing, work preferences, concerns, and next steps.

Candidate-friendly process

Strong tax candidates do not want to feel like a transaction. We build trust, confirm interest, and keep communication professional.

Right-to-Represent confirmed

Every candidate introduction is permission-based. No resume blasting. No surprise submissions. No confusion around representation.

Tax specialization

RezzyCheck focuses on public accounting tax hiring, especially staff, senior, manager, and senior manager searches.

Better use of partner time

Your team should not have to spend hours figuring out whether a candidate is worth a first conversation. We help filter earlier.

Roles we support

Tax recruiting support from staff through leadership.

RezzyCheck works with CPA firms hiring tax professionals who can succeed in a public accounting client-service environment.

How it works

A cleaner tax recruiting process from intake to offer.

The goal is not to send the most resumes. The goal is to help your firm meet better-aligned tax candidates faster.

1

Clarify the tax role

We start with a focused intake call to understand the level, entity mix, client base, technical needs, team structure, compensation, work arrangement, and timeline.

2

Search and screen candidates

Candidates are reviewed for public accounting tax experience, technical fit, communication, career motivation, compensation expectations, and readiness to move.

3

Send a curated shortlist

You receive selected candidates with clear notes, not a pile of tax resumes your team has to decode from scratch.

4

Coordinate interviews and feedback

We help keep the process moving with scheduling support, candidate communication, feedback loops, and clear next steps.

5

Support offer conversations

When there is mutual interest, we help manage expectations, timing, and candidate communication so strong tax candidates do not fall through the cracks.

Candidate quality

Better context before the first interview.

A tax resume rarely tells the full story. RezzyCheck gives CPA firms practical candidate context so your team can make faster, better-informed interview decisions.

  • Tax technical background and entity experience
  • Compensation expectations and timing
  • Work arrangement preferences
  • Motivation for making a move
  • Potential concerns to discuss during the interview process

Why timing matters

Open tax roles create pressure long before busy season.

When a tax seat stays open too long, the cost is not just recruiting time. It affects managers, partners, clients, team morale, and the firm’s ability to grow.

The hidden cost of waiting

  • Managers absorb more review work
  • Staff burn out faster
  • Partners spend more time in the weeds
  • Client service gets harder to protect
  • Qualified tax candidates move on to faster firms

What a stronger process creates

  • More targeted candidate conversations
  • Cleaner interview decisions
  • Faster movement when the right person appears
  • Better candidate experience
  • More confidence before making an offer
