Accounting is a profession with personalized and early recruiting processes. As such, organizations are eager to meet students early within the school year. Attend this reverse pitch event to learn about employers hiring accounting students.
A reverse pitch event is like a reverse career fair. During the September 11 program, employers will introduce their organizations to you. Then, at the Meet the Firms Social on September 25, you may introduce yourself to representatives of hiring organizations in-person.
The Accounting Reverse Pitch Virtual Event will be hosted through Microsoft Teams and moderated by Professor Rich Tobin. Students are encouraged to attend from 5-7 p.m. but may attend for the portion of the event that best fits their schedules.
Attire: This is a “get to know you” recruiting event. As such, a clean, groomed appearance is recommended. Within the virtual event, attire may span from Marquette gear to a more formal shirt/tie or blouse. A suit is not required or expected for either of these accounting events.
Questions: please contact Grace at g.m.dunn@marquette.edu (Senior Career and Industry Advisor, Business Career Center).
