- Details of the career fair (e.g., where, when)
Virtual; September 17, 2021
- What you learned
I learned about various opportunities at firms such as EY and RSM, while also learning about the day to day work in several of their business lines. I also learned about the application process for these firms, and what course of action I can take to get ahead.
- How the career fair relates to coursework or your career goals
My goal is to become a CPA and work in audit, so landing a spot at one of these firms would directly help me gain the experience required for such a role. My coursework in Cash Accounting and Intermediate Accounting will help me get there, but I also learned that IT is becoming more important for auditors. Knowledge of IT infrastructure that I am gaining from my MIS degree could therefore make me an even more valuable asset to a team.
