bill carroll, ceo of hoops hr, reveals the three keys to smart hiring for accounting firms, in this conversation with matt solomon.
“we look at retention in really three key areas,” carroll says. “it’s security for that person. a lot of that has to do with income, but a lot of that has to do with how they’re treated internally as a person. how does the organization engage in conflict? how do they solve a conflict? is there ultimately a resolution? there’s a security aspect to that, and pay is just a portion of that.”
“care is another,” carroll adds. “security plus care. we look at care as benefits packages or access to benefit packages. then there’s retirement and perks, which should really be aligned with your core values.”
the third element is appreciation. “appreciation will ultimately lead to retention. we all know that experiences drive beliefs, beliefs drive behaviors, and behaviors drive results.”

we started by asking about “when it got real?”
she responds, “we truly are affected by the whole world. we have clients in new york. things changed for them rather quickly. and when they started changing, we started realizing, ‘oh, my goodness, we’re going to have to really buckle down.’ in arizona, we started seeing shutdowns mid-march. that’s when things really got real for us because then we started seeing that the businesses that we work with on a regular basis – we’re outsourced accounting, so we work with clients weekly, – we knew that we could be in trouble. we started working really hard on transitioning, and seeing what we needed to do to help our clients quickly.”
