What’s the starting salary for an entry level general accountant in the Raleigh NC area with 1-2 years of experience? Any help would be appreciated! A general ballpark for private, in payroll or A/R. Have a friend considering moving back home.

I would imagine a tax associate (public) in Raleigh is making a little under $60k or so. Maybe in the $55-58k range?

Entry level accountant in private with a smidge of experience? Are they licensed? If not, I’d say maybe 35-40k would be more realistic. Just my two cents, but I could be way off the mark.
