About This Survey
Mercor is opening a series of accounting-focused engagements with leading AI labs over the coming weeks and months — spanning audit reasoning, financial reporting, tax, GAAP/IFRS analysis, and adjacent workstreams. Before we finalize the scope of each, we want to build them around how accountants actually work, not how the field is described in textbooks or public sources.
This is a written intake designed to map out the real workflows, tools, decision points, and specialty cuts inside the profession — from the inside.
What You'll Do
- Complete a ~30-minute written intake about your accounting practice
- Describe your day-to-day workflows, how your time is split, and the workflows core to your role
- Explain how experienced accountants actually divide the field from the inside — the cuts insiders use, not the textbook ones
- Share the "invisible" parts of your work that outsiders (including project designers) tend to miss
- No right or wrong answers — detail and specificity matter far more than polish
Ideal Respondents
- Practicing or recently practicing accountants — public accounting, corporate finance, audit, tax, or advisory
- CPA (or equivalent) preferred; deep domain experience without the credential also welcome
- Willing to write detailed, specific responses about the mechanics of your work
Why This Matters
- Your intake shapes the scope of the accounting engagements we launch
- Thoughtful responses translate directly into more offer matches and priority routing as we open new engagements over the coming weeks and months
- Typical accounting rates on Mercor range from $80–$120/hr and scale with seniority

Common questions
Does Mercor's application require an on-camera interview?
Yes, every applicant records a video interview with an AI interviewer that asks questions about your resume. Clients review that recording to judge communication skills before matching, so there's no way to apply without going on camera.
Does it cost money to apply to Mercor?
No, applying and joining Mercor is free. Mercor's revenue comes from a fee it charges the client on top of your hourly rate, not from applicants. Treat any request for payment to join as a red flag.
What does the day-to-day workload look like for elite-expert AI training roles?
Slow and deep, not fast and repetitive. A single task can take 45-60 minutes of researching citations or verifying complex calculations. Quality is what's being measured here, not throughput.
Is AI training work the same as traditional consulting?
No. Instead of client deliverables, you're given complex scenarios to evaluate: grading the AI's logic, correcting its hallucinations, and supplying expert-level reasoning it doesn't have on its own. The job is closer to teaching than consulting.
What does Accounting work look like for an Accounting Domain Intake — Shape Upcoming Accounting Engagements?
Tasks here are scoped to Accounting, not generic labeling. As an Accounting Domain Intake — Shape Upcoming Accounting Engagements, expect to draw on real domain judgment (evaluating outputs, correcting errors, or providing expert reasoning specific to Accounting) rather than following a one-size-fits-all rubric. If you don't have hands-on Accounting background, this is likely not the right listing to start with.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Polish is named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with this, expect the screening process to test for it directly rather than accepting adjacent experience as a substitute.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $80–$120/hr, an hourly rate. The range reflects experience level and negotiated terms, not a placeholder, so where you land in it depends on your background and the assessment. Pay can change between when we last checked the listing and when you apply, so confirm the current number on the platform's own application page before committing time.
Do I need to be fluent in Polish?
Yes. This role specifically requires Polish proficiency, on top of the English most AI training work assumes by default. If Polish is not a language you're fluent in, this is not the right role. Filter for your native language to find better-matched listings.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
You'll be taken to Mercor's external site to complete your application there. This listing links through a referral, but the process is identical to applying directly; the link just routes you correctly. Create an account on their site and follow their onboarding steps.
How soon will I start working after applying to Mercor?
Not immediately. Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue, so applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You start working only once a specific client, like a major AI lab, selects your profile, and that matching process can take weeks.
