Hiring software built for accounting firms hiring without a recruiter

It's software that reads and ranks your candidates for you, so you're not the one reading resumes between client deadlines. <a href="/">Truffle</a> combines resume screening, one-way video interviews, and talent assessments in one workflow, built for a managing partner or office manager hiring without a recruiter.

You set the criteria for the role once (software experience, years in public accounting, client-facing skills) and Truffle scores every candidate against it. You get a ranked shortlist with the reasoning attached instead of a stack of resumes to read one by one.

Yes. Qualification Questions ask upfront whether a candidate has the software or tax program experience your firm runs on, and Resume review reads work history and claimed experience against your role. Nothing is auto-rejected, so a close-fit candidate still shows up for you to review.

Most do when the interview is short. A well-configured Truffle interview runs about 10 minutes, and Candidate Reminders at 24 and 72 hours lift completion. For a thin-pool role like a credentialed senior accountant, you can skip video and screen on resumes and an assessment instead.

You define what matters for the role at intake: software experience, years in the seat, client-service skills, whatever you'd ask a recruiter to look for. AI analyzes each resume and response against that and produces a match score with the reasoning shown. AI surfaces the evidence. You decide who moves forward.

Bookkeepers, staff accountants and senior accountants, tax preparers, and client-service or admin coordinators. Any role you hire for more than once is a good fit, since that's where a ranked, repeatable process saves the most time.

No. Truffle isn't a licensing or background-check service. Qualification Questions let you ask a candidate directly whether they hold a CPA, EA, or specific certification, and Resume review reads what they've claimed. Verifying an active license is still on you.

Yes. You can get a role live in under 15 minutes from a job description, and every plan includes unlimited positions, so opening three seasonal bookkeeper roles at once doesn't cost extra. Duplicate a position you ran last tax season and reuse the same questions and rubric. See <a href="/solution/seasonal-hiring-software">seasonal hiring software</a> for more on cloning a screening process year over year.

No. Most firms still want to meet a finalist before an offer, and that's a good instinct when someone will handle client books. Truffle gets you to the few candidates worth that meeting faster, with a resume read, a recorded response, and an assessment already in hand.

Indeed collects applications. It doesn't screen them. Truffle reads every resume against your role, flags who meets your must-haves, and ranks the pool, so you open a shortlist instead of eighty unsorted resumes the week before deadline.

No. Most firms this size don't have one and don't need one for this. Share your Position Link on your job boards or careers page, and Truffle handles the screening layer on its own. If you add an ATS later, Truffle connects through Zapier or the API.

Usually under 15 minutes from a job description. Paste it in, accept or edit the AI-suggested questions, add your firm's branding, and share the link.

Yes. Each method stands alone and you choose what applies per role. Many firms start with resume screening for credentialed roles and add a one-way interview or assessment for client-facing coordinator roles.

Plans start at $49/month (Starter), credit-based: a resume screened is 1 credit, an assessed candidate is 2, a completed one-way interview is 5, all from one shared monthly pool. Every feature is on every plan and credits roll over, so the pool you build in the slow months is there for tax season.
