Reminder – Intro to Spring Recruit workshop (virtual) on Tuesday, January 31st, 4:45 pm

As a reminder, DAP career coach, Russell Garrett, will be holding two workshops on the upcoming fall recruitment cycle for pre-approved program route (PPR) positions. The majority of public practice accounting firms will be hiring through this cycle, so if you are interested in working in public practice and will have all of your CPA PEP pre-requisites in time to start a full-time role in 2024, attend these upcoming sessions to learn more and build your foundation for a successful recruitment experience!

The first workshop in this series will be an intro to spring recruit, held online Tuesday, January 31st, 4:45 pm. Public Practice Recruiting (PPR) is a significant period for the Big 4, national, mid-sized and some local small firms to network with, interview and hire students from many Post-Secondary Institutions (PSIs) for positions beginning the following year. Learn how PPR works and how to begin preparing now to give yourself the greatest advantage over other PSIs to make connections, land work with a CPA Pre-Approved Training Office and achieve your CPA aspirations. Learn from a guest panel of successful students that recently landed positions with the firms. Then, participate in a break out session where you can ask questions to the panel member in your group and prepare for your PPR experience this Spring.

Registration for this workshop will be on COOL until Monday, January 30th.
