The entry level accounting position or Staff Accountant position is generally the first position for people who have completed a 4 year college detree in accounting or a related field and want to start a career in accounting.
The entry level Staff Accountant is the records keeper of most companies. They work directly with the numbers. Some fo the jobs a Staff Accountant may perform include: overseeing data entry of accounts-receivable or accounts-payable, assisting in preparing the firm's financial reports, preparing balance sheets or supervising payroll.
Other job titles for the Staff Accountant may include: Bookkeeper, Accounting Associate, Accounting Clerk, Accounant Assistant or Accounting Representative. These are all effectively the same accounting position with different titles.
Yes, even CPA's or Certified Public Accountants can be classified as entry level accountants or Staff Accountants. While this is rare, it is usually when someone has just graduated from college and/or has just passed the CPA exam with little or no accounting experience in the field.
Generally, it is usually people who have returned to school to complete a Master's degree in Accounting that have passed the CPA exam without having worked in the Accounting field prior.
Once you have finished a four year degree in accounting or a similar field, the key to getting an entry level job in accounting is to write a really strong resume and cover letter, then seek out the best possible unadvertised jobs there are.
