When you're searching for accounting jobs and you're most interested in a supervising position, you should start by searching for entry level accounting jobs or any basic accounting finance jobs. Accounting manager jobs tend to usually open up to those who are already in the lower ranks. They have the insider information and have already developed a relationship with those who make all the decisions. You can't really expect to land a high position accounting job right from college, so you should begin by looking for regular entry level jobs.

Accounting jobs can be very tedious. Many accountants begin their careers as auditors and have to work for a couple years going through other business’s finances, while their boss and employees hate you for slowing them down and getting in their way. It’s not the most glorifying position but it’s the grunt work you have to go through to pay your dues. Once you’ve finished a year or two as an auditor, you’re ready to advance to an accounting position. After you’ve taken care of some clients’ finances for a few years, you can apply for a supervisor position. This is usually the process. However, there are always exceptions to the rule.
You can’t expect to jump into an accounting supervisor position straight from high school. First, you need a Bachelor’s degree, preferable in accounting. You’ll most likely be looking into internships during your senior year of college but it’s not necessary. It might help you bypass the auditor stages, but that’s also not likely. Once you’ve finished with your undergraduate program, you need to apply for entry level accounting jobs. After you’ve worked as an auditor for a couple years, you advance to become an accountant. Once you’ve been accountant long enough to prove yourself, you can successfully and effectively apply for a supervisor position. It takes time, but everything valuable or of worth requires time and effort to achieve.
Salaries for supervisors generally range between $60K and $75K a year. This also depends on the size of the accounting firm you work for, but generally this is where the salaries range from. If you’ve worked with the company for many years before advancing to a supervisor position, you might see a higher salary due—you’ll be receiving a raise from your previous salary, whatever that might be.
Accounting supervisor jobs can be difficult. You need to know all about what your accountants will be dealing with and will need to help them through any problems that might arise. However, as the supervisor, you get to delegate certain tasks you didn’t enjoy doing as much. It’ll be your job to motivate someone else to do it instead. Or you can simply throw it all on an entry level accountant and tell him it’s all part of paying his dues. Many supervisors do this, and this is why many accountants hate their bosses. You might rise through the ranks determined to change that approach and might find a different way of doing things. It’s up to you, and that’s the beauty of it!
