Virtual Learning Sessions for Public Accounting

Are you trying to figure out if accounting is the right major for you? Are you interested in a public accounting internship but want to better understand the timeline for applying? Join us for one of our virtual learning sessions to get a better understanding of what it's like to work at a professional services firm, as well as all the different career paths an accounting degree can take you. Feel confident as you head into career fair season by taking some advice from our campus recruiters who are here to help you!

If you are interested in public accounting, these virtual learning sessions are a space where you'll be able to explore what it's like to work in Audit, Tax and Consulting. This is an opportunity to learn more about our firm, the different practices and our culture, all while also getting a chance to connect with people who work in those departments every day.

Each of the one-hour sessions will start with advice from our campus recruiters around the campus recruiting timeline, resume tips, and advice for attending career fairs. From there, you'll get to hear more from our talented team members in Audit, Tax and Consulting (one practice per program date), as well as an opportunity for attendees to ask questions.

The core of the information will remain the same during each session, so you can choose to join one, or all three, if you'd like to compare the different opportunities in front of you.

Program Dates:

• Session 1 (focus on Audit): TBC
• Session 2 (focus on Tax): TBC
• Session 3 (focus on Consulting): TBC
