I have an IT background and most recently completed my Master of Science in Accounting degree, and now working on the CPA exam. However, I find it extremely difficult to find an accounting firm that is willing to sponsor for the H1B visa for any entry level accounting job roles. Since I don’t have any accounting experience, it seems I can only target entry/associate level accounting roles, and I haven’t had any luck yet. Can anyone shared some advice on how to obtain a sponsorship in accounting?

Take a look at https://h1bdata.info/. The website is clunky, unfortunately, but it can give you an idea of what companies have sponsored before. It also has a jobs section that may or may not be useful.
