What To Do During recruitment?

Not surprisingly, most interns are hired during accounting recruitment events.
So you really have to go to those career fairs.

I will tell you some insight on what exactly recruiters like to see during the recruitment.

First of all your appearance.
Go to Man's Warehouse and buy a nice $500 dollar dark suite, dark blue tie, and s white or blue shirt. Make sure you look professional, that includes your hair, handshake, smiles, everything. If you don't wear suite, you don't look professional... remember that. It is important for any accounting internships

Before talking to the recruiter, make sure you know if you are interested in a full time position or an internship. Don't just say, I am interested in both. But it is always better to say that you are interested in an internship unless you already had an internship with them because 90% of their new hires went through an internship program with the very same company. So you do the math.

Also, absolutely make sure which division you want to work for. Are you interested in Audit, Tax or transfer pricing or whatever. Don't just say that your interested both in Audit and Tax Accounting Internships or that you are interested in Audit but would also consider Tax. Because this means that you don't know what you want from your career and that you are not goal oriented.

Basically make sure which location you are applying for and for what time (summer/winter). It is always better to check what they actually are offering. Because Delloite might be hiring only two Audit accounting interns for their Chicago location from your school.
And you say that you want to go for Tax, or that you want to work in New York... You will not get anything.

So basically do the research, be prepared and good luck.
