Freelance writing, steps to becoming a CPA, payment: $50 per jurisdiction write-up (USA)

Reply to: gigs-kjzzf-2294633556@craigslist.org

I'm looking to develop write-ups providing simple step by step instructions on the process by which one becomes a CPA in each of the 54 jurisdictions/states. These will detail the three E's (education, exam, experience) and the CPE (continuing professional education) requirements specific to each jurisdiction. The research for these write-ups often requires a call to the respective jurisdiction's board of accountancy to clarify information that might not be entirely clear through web resources. These write-ups are intended to make a process that is somewhat complex in it's finer points very accessible and easy to understand. Because these will be formatted as step by step instructions, they will provide very concise instructions rather than lengthy written explanations. Good research will be a very key component. Because most jurisdictions adhere to a very similar process in accordance with the Uniform Accountancy Act, these write-ups will require attention be paid to the subtle uniquenesses in each jurisdiction. This project has already been piloted and is underway so I have several examples to follow. Having some familiarity with the CPA certification/licensure process, or with accounting in general, would be helpful but is not necessary.

The pay is $50.00 per jurisdiction write-up. Please provide me with a writing sample, and if you're considered I'll provide an example for your review and get you started with a paid try-out assignment. Please only respond if you're a confident and capable researcher/writer. Only available to U.S. residents. Thank you.

Compensation: $50.00
