2014 Recruiting Tip #6: Attend Firm Tours

Nothing prepares you to work for a firm like seeing what it's like behind the scenes!

Many firms offer special tours to students, providing them with valuable information they can use to guide their decisions and goals. While going on an office tour won't guarantee you a position, it will allow you to network with the firm and gain exposure to their staff members, which would greatly assist you in interviewing for a possible position. It also allows you the opportunity to really see what the culture of that firm is like so that you can see if this might be a good fit for you and your personality.

Who knows, you may even be shocked if they ask you to take a #selfie!

These tours are frequently offered in connection with the Accounting Club, or other student organizations, and may be difficult to find as an individual. If you hear that your Accounting Club is arranging a tour, make sure to sign up!
