To learn more about our services and the resources we offer, please visit www.roberthalf.com. Sincerely, Max Messmer Chairman and CEO Robert Half International Robert Half 2010 Salary Guide 1

Using the Salary Guide Hiring skilled workers is one of a manager s most critical tasks. Not making the right match can be costly in terms of the resources spent recruiting and training a new employee, as well as the lost productivity involved in searching for a replacement. The 2010 Salary Guide from Robert Half can make the hiring process easier and more effective. The Salary Guide features starting salary information for more than 130 accounting and finance positions based on: Thousands of full-time and interim placements made by our professionals across the country Local insight from our staffing and recruiting professionals throughout our branch network Exclusive workplace research we conduct regularly among chief financial officers (CFOs) and other senior executives An analysis of the hiring environment and an extrapolation of current trends into 2010 Educational institutions, media outlets and government entities consult the Salary Guide for the most comprehensive information on compensation and hiring. We hope this resource will be useful in your recruitment efforts. About the Salaries In each job category, the salary ranges listed represent starting compensation only because hard-to-measure factors such as seniority and job performance can affect ongoing pay. Bonuses, incentives and other benefits also are not reflected, as they vary greatly by industry and company. The figures in the Salary Guide are national averages. For information on adjusting them to your area market, please see the Local Variances section on Page 15. A Robert Half representative can offer additional assistance in creating compensation packages customized to your business. 2 2010 Salary Guide Robert Half

Building a Strong Team Accounting and finance departments are playing an integral role in companies efforts to operate more efficiently, grow profits and remain competitive. Firms that invest in developing and maintaining skilled financial talent are best-positioned to accomplish these goals in the face of fluctuating business conditions. An effective hiring process should begin with a thorough examination of department workloads and priorities. Rather than automatically filling vacancies with people who possess the same functional skills and experience as their predecessors, managers should reassess their requirements based on immediate and long-term business needs and update job descriptions accordingly. Trends Shaping the Hiring Environment CFOs interviewed for a Robert Half survey indicated that strong leadership and skilled employees are a firm s best protection against competitive threats. Yet, top performers remain difficult to find. According to the Robert Half International Financial Hiring Index, a quarterly survey gauging the hiring expectations of more than 270 CFOs across Canada, finance executives continue to report challenges filling positions in some specialties. CFOs were asked, Which one of the following will best protect companies from competitive threats in the next three years? Their responses: Strong company leadership 33% Don t know/no answer: 4% Other: 1% Up-to-date competitive intelligence and market data Ability to develop and implement new ideas quickly 7% 11% 12% 32% A focus on hiring the best people Up-to-date technology Source: Robert Half survey of more than 270 CFOs in Canada Robert Half 2010 Salary Guide 3

Building a Strong Team Companies are looking for people who possess deep technical expertise and are also excellent communicators, able to collaborate with colleagues across multiple departments. Accounting and finance professionals also must be proficient with enterprise resource planning and financial reporting tools and be able to use this expertise to analyze data and provide recommendations for the business. Professional accreditations are valued by hiring managers, and the chartered accountant (CA), certified general accountant (CGA) and certified management accountant (CMA) designations continue to serve as key hiring criteria. Other noted accreditations include chartered financial analyst (CFA), certified internal auditor (CIA), certified information systems auditor (CISA), certified fraud examiner (CFE), certified credit professional (CCP), certified payroll manager (CPM) and payroll compliance practitioner (PCP). For seniorlevel corporate finance positions, a master s degree in business administration (MBA) often is preferred. Areas of Greater Focus Organizations are placing an emphasis on positions that help boost cash flow. In a global Robert Half survey, finance and human resources managers said credit and collections and accounts receivable ranked among the functional areas that have increased most in importance within their accounting and finance departments in recent years. In addition, globalization is creating demand for accounting and finance professionals with international experience. Organizations with multinational operations seek staff with multilingual abilities. Expertise with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and foreign tax, compliance, legal and regulatory issues also is highly valued. Companies are looking for people who possess deep technical expertise and are also excellent communicators, able to collaborate with colleagues across multiple departments. 4 2010 Salary Guide Robert Half

Experience in Demand Tax Businesses are hiring accountants to help address changing tax regulations. In some areas of the country, demand continues to outpace the supply of qualified professionals available. Credit and collections Companies need employees who can contribute to the bottom line by evaluating credit risk, managing delinquent payments and improving cash flow. Cash management As organizations focus on cost control and ensuring sound fiscal decisions, they require personnel with the ability to monitor financial activity, prepare statements and recommend effective cash-management strategies. Financial reporting Demand continues for professionals with IFRS expertise as Canadian publicly traded and publicly accountable organizations prepare for the January 2011 conversion deadline. Financial and business analysis Companies need staff able to evaluate financial plans, forecasts and budgets, and to identify ways to improve profitability. Businesses also seek analysts who can translate operational and competitive data into reports that enhance decision-making throughout the organization. Robert Half 2010 Salary Guide 5

Building a Strong Team Hiring Plans in Action With no time or money to waste on poor personnel decisions, businesses are taking careful steps to ensure they select the best potential accounting and finance employees. Following are tips for successful hiring: Outline clear skills requirements for the position you are filling, creating a targeted job description that can be used as the basis for the employment advertisement and the rest of the hiring process. Remain actively involved throughout the recruitment process. Your direct participation will lead to better outcomes because you have the greatest understanding of the position s success factors. Focus on professional networking both in person and online. Staying active with industry associations and local business organizations, as well as universities, can help you reach your target candidate base. Also participate in online groups, such as those on LinkedIn, to cast a wider net. Conduct phone interviews with applicants whose resumes draw your interest to assess whether they are qualified for the job and possess strong communication skills. This will narrow the list of applicants you invite for in-person interviews. Work with a specialized recruiting firm that can locate and identify the strongest accounting and finance candidates, including individuals who may not be actively looking for new jobs but are open to the right opportunity. Consider bringing in candidates on a temporary basis. In addition to acquiring interim support during your hiring search, this will allow you to evaluate professionals abilities and fit with your team firsthand before extending a full-time offer.

The Salary Centre also includes our Salary Calculator. 6 2010 Salary Guide Robert Half

Asking the Right Interview Questions The in-person interview remains one of a hiring manager s most effective tools for evaluating job candidates. Unfortunately, managers frequently rely on a list of standard questions to which most applicants have practiced responses. Here are five common questions to avoid, as well as suggestions for obtaining more informative responses: 1. Don t ask: Can you tell me about yourself? Job applicants are likely to simply provide a summary of their resume, preventing you from finding out new information. Instead, ask: What professional accomplishment are you most proud of and why? This question forces job candidates to elaborate on details in their resumes and provides you with insight into each person s self-described best quality. 2. Don t ask: Why do you want to work here? Although this question can help you determine how much job seekers know about your organization, chances are you ll also receive praise about the company that borders on insincere. Instead, ask: Why are you attracted to our company in particular? With this question, applicants must articulate why they view your organization as unique, allowing you to assess not only their depth of knowledge about your firm but also whether they truly want to work for the company. 3. Don t ask: What are your strengths? Because this is one of the most common questions posed by hiring managers, candidates often come with prepared responses. Instead, ask: What is your greatest professional strength, and how have you used it to overcome a challenge in your career? This question forces applicants not only to describe an attribute they possess but also to expand on how they have applied it to a real-world situation. 4. Don t ask: What are your weaknesses? Candidates often come to the interview with positive spins to this query such as, I work too hard that reveal little about their real areas for improvement. Instead, ask: Can you describe a time when you did not accomplish a goal and how you rectified the situation? Your goal with this request is to determine how applicants deal with adversity and have learned from past experiences. 5. Don t ask: Do you prefer working alone or on a team? In today s business environment, companies need workers who can excel in both team and individual roles, rendering this question obsolete. Instead, ask: Can you give me an example of a time when you worked with a colleague or group to solve a workplace challenge? Collaboration is more important than ever, and ideal candidates will be able to demonstrate they can work effectively with people from different departments and at various levels within the organization. Robert Half 2010 Salary Guide 7

Maintaining Staff Morale The need to maintain employee morale can sometimes slip off a busy manager s radar, but keeping your team engaged isn t something that can be postponed. Companies with enthusiastic workers have higher productivity levels and retention rates. Even if budgets are tight, there are a number of meaningful ways to motivate your employees. Here are some suggestions: Keep Lines of Communication Open In a Robert Half survey, the most common step CFOs interviewed said their companies have taken to improve morale is increasing the quality and frequency of their communication. It is especially important to communicate frequently during times of change, when staff members are most likely to seek information and guidance. Maintain an Open-Door Policy When you re known to be accessible, employees will be more comfortable coming to you with problems before they escalate. Managers who don t respond promptly to voice mails or e-mails from staff or have a habit of interrupting a conversation to take a phone call, for example, signal they have more important things to do than support their team. Capitalize on the Multiple Advantages of Delegating Some managers avoid delegating tasks they decide would take longer to explain to someone than simply complete themselves. But there is more to delegating than meets the eye. Giving employees greater ownership of projects empowers them to perform at peak levels and allows them to build new skills. Give Your Team Credit Employees need regular positive reinforcement. Recognition is not only one of the most important morale-boosting strategies but also one of the simplest and most cost-effective. A heartfelt thank you delivered in person can do wonders. Provide Relief When Necessary Employees recognize the importance of working hard to meet critical deadlines when the team is short-staffed, but even your best people can t be expected to endlessly pitch in with extra effort. Bringing in temporary financial professionals to fill staffing gaps takes some of the pressure off of your core team and also gives you access to skills that may not be available internally. Help Employees Keep Their Skills Sharp The ability of your staff to update their skills and develop new ones is what keeps your business competitive and serves as a launching pad for your future leaders. Augment formal training by giving employees an opportunity to work on special projects, serve on cross-departmental teams and learn from a mentor. 8 2010 Salary Guide Robert Half

Six Surefire Morale Deflators and How to Avoid Them 1. Not standing by your team: Managers who don t support employees lose their trust. Stand up for your staff members, particularly if they re criticized unfairly. If you re there for them, they ll be there for you. 2. Ignoring the rumour mill: It exists in every organization, and there s no shortage of gossip especially in times of rapid change. Tell your team all you can as early as you can to cut back on grapevine chatter. 3. Thinking it s all about money: Without a doubt, money matters when it comes to motivation, but it s not all that is important. According to a Robert Half survey, the primary reason people quit their jobs is limited opportunity for advancement, followed by unhappiness with management and lack of recognition. Compensation ranked fourth. 4. Oiling only the squeaky wheel: For every person who approaches you with questions or concerns, there are several others who won t. Regularly touch base with employees in person. You ll be able to solicit feedback from your strong, silent types in addition to your more vocal team members. 5. Catching people off guard: Employees should never be surprised by what they hear during a performance review. Consistently let staff members know what they re doing right and where they need to improve. 6. Making staff afraid to ask for help: Often, your most reliable employees will be the most overloaded and least likely to speak up. Sure, you appreciate hard work, but don t inadvertently promote a culture where workers feel they can t request assistance with projects when they need it. Executives were asked, In your opinion, what is the best remedy for low morale? Their responses: None of the above Additional days off: 3% Team-building activities: 2% Monetary awards Unexpected rewards 7% 6% 9% 23% 50% Communication Recognition programs Source: Robert Half survey of 100 senior executives in Canada Robert Half 2010 Salary Guide 9

Staffing Flexibility: A Perennial Advantage Most businesses recognize the wisdom of long-range operational planning but often fall short when it comes to adopting a staffing plan that can serve them day in and day out. As a result, a cycle of layoffs, followed by more hiring, then additional layoffs, is all too common. To remain productive in good times and bad, companies need a flexible approach to staff management and preferably one that saves them money in the process. Staffing flexibility requires a holistic view of both short- and long-term needs. In times of rapid change, cutting or expanding full-time staff without considering the bigger picture can be a mistake. Broadly implemented personnel reductions can result in the loss of talent you may need in the future. Likewise, hiring quickly to meet immediate needs can cause you to overlook how external and internal conditions may have changed since a position was last filled, which can significantly affect whether you should seek a replacement or make alternative arrangements. First, look internally. Can you reprioritize projects and temporarily reassign some of your staff members to more pressing matters? If this is not feasible, consider filling positions for which you clearly expect to have a long-term need with additional full-time hires and augmenting this core staff with temporary professionals for shorter-term project roles or expertise you may need periodically. This blend of full-time and interim professionals will afford you the greatest flexibility, both currently and when conditions again begin to change. Following are the major advantages of a flexible staffing strategy: Cost savings: A mix of employee resources enables you to turn some of your fixed personnel costs into variable expenses because you pay only for the talent you need when it s truly needed. In addition, you ll lower the high costs associated with hiring and training new staff while managing overtime expenses. Improved competitive position: Having more control over personnel costs gives you an advantage over competitors with less flexible staffing strategies who may be more vulnerable to economic ups and downs. Higher retention rates: A temporary/full-time employee mix reduces stress for core employees and protects their jobs by decreasing the likelihood of further fulltime cutbacks. Reduced burden on full-time staff: Using temporary workers to assist with dayto-day responsibilities allows core staff to pursue other high-priority challenges or take time off, as needed, to recharge. Wider choices: More and more experienced professionals are choosing project work because of the flexibility and variety of assignments it offers, which deepens the talent pool. For initiatives that require specialized, technical knowledge that doesn t exist in-house, you can find temporary professionals who possess these precise skill sets. In fact, in a Robert Half survey, finance and human resources managers cited the ability to access special skills unavailable internally as the greatest benefit of working with project professionals. 16 2010 Salary Guide Robert Half

To remain productive in good times and bad, companies need a flexible approach to staff management and preferably one that saves them money in the process. Partnering With a Staffing Firm A well-chosen staffing service can serve as your long-term partner and advisor.

The specialized divisions of Robert Half maintain networks that increase the number and quality of our contacts, giving you access to highly skilled accounting and finance professionals you might not typically be able to find on your own.
