In their own words
“A new client came to us fourteen months behind on their books: two QuickBooks files, a personal card mixed into business spending, and an opening balance that was off by $6,900. I rebuilt the chart of accounts, brought in the bank and card feeds month by month, and tagged every owner expense for their CPA to review. It took about six weeks working a few hours a day. When we finished, their CPA filed the overdue return from clean books, and the client moved to a normal monthly close with me.”
Sample profile. A structured, verified record, not a resume in an inbox.
Where we are right now
We'll be straight with you, because you've seen enough websites that aren't.
AccountingTalent.in is new. We are building the talent database first, and that is what this application is. We open it to US accounting firms in late 2026 (October to December).
There is no job waiting for you today.
What you get by applying now:
- Founding-member placement
- Verified early profiles appear first when firms start searching.
- A free, permanent profile
- We will never charge accountants. Our revenue comes from firms paying for database access, the same model that has worked for over 15 years in the Philippines (OnlineJobs.ph), where more than 500,000 employers hire this way.
- No exclusivity, no lock-in
- Your profile, your negotiation, your job. Delete anytime.
Questions you’re probably asking
Is this really free?
Yes, permanently, for accounting professionals. US firms pay a subscription to search the database. If anyone ever asks you for money to join, it is not us.
I don't have US experience. Should I still apply?
Yes, if you are a CA, CA Inter, CMA, or an experienced accountant. Many US firms train strong fundamentals. You will be in the trainable pool, shown to firms that hire for potential.
How would a US firm pay me?
Directly, in USD, via international transfer or payment platforms. This is the same way thousands of Indian freelancers and remote workers are paid today.
We are also building payment tooling that handles the FIRC paperwork you need for GST and tax filing.
Do I have to work US night hours?
No. Many roles (bookkeeping, tax prep) work fine on Indian hours with overnight turnaround. Roles needing live collaboration pay more for evening overlap. You declare your preference in the application.
The database opens to US firms in late 2026. Be in it on day one.
