Reminder – Networking for Spring Recruit workshop (virtual) on Tuesday, February 7th, 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 next workshop in this series will focus on networking and will be held online on Tuesday, February 7th, 4:45-6:15 pm. Gaining information and building relationships are two key components to succeeding during PPR and paving the way for a successful career. Networking is a learned skill that anyone can develop. Making meaningful connections can happen through both organized and proactive opportunities. These contacts can result in information interviews or “coffee chats” that can provide critical information to target firms, prepare specific applications, increase interview success and make your follow up stand out. When firms make decisions about who to interview or hire, the people they already know have a distinct advantage. Come learn the strategies of networking and connect with our panel of Sauder students that recently networked their way to success.

Registration for this workshop will be on COOL until Monday, February 6th.
