For candidates
Is Big 4 Talent free for candidates?+
Completely free. We're paid by employers when they hire — and we pay you a $500 bonus when you land a role through us.
Will my current employer see my profile?+
No. You're private by default and approve every introduction, role by role. Your current employer is automatically added to your block list, and you can add others.
How does the matching work?+
Every potential match is scored across 19 weighted dimensions — level, comp, skills, certifications, industry, company size, commute and more — and every score is transparent. You only ever see roles that genuinely fit.
How long does signup take?+
A couple of minutes. Drop your résumé, confirm what we read, answer a few quick questions, and you're in — no long forms.
What roles are available?+
Accounting and finance roles at every level, from Senior Accountant to CFO, across Big 4, corporate, and financial services.
For employers
How much does it cost?+
You pay only when you successfully hire — a percentage of the candidate's first-year base salary, tiered by volume and starting at 12.5%. No upfront fees or subscriptions. See the full Fee Terms for details.
What makes your candidates different?+
Every candidate has verified Big 4 experience, is pre-vetted, and has consented to your specific role before you ever see them — so your shortlist is genuinely interested.
How do I write a role that matches well?+
Include the title and level, a base-salary range, the must-have skills and certifications, the location and work model, and years of experience. The more specific you are, the sharper your matches — and you can fine-tune everything after you post.
How fast can I hire?+
Most roles get matched candidates within days of posting. Matching runs automatically the moment your role is approved.
Can I post multiple roles?+
Yes — post as many as you need. Each role gets its own matched shortlist.
