Meet the Firms is a career fair-style, networking and recruiting event that connects students with professionals and recruiters in the accounting profession. We host representatives from the Big Four, mid-size, and regional firms.
The event allows students and professionals to mingle and gain a sense of familiarity with one another. It is crucial for students to get face time and meaningful conversations with as many professionals as possible.
If you are a student who is unsure about the profession, Meet the Firms is a great way to get to know what the industry is all about.
We host two Meet the Firms events during the school year: one in the Fall and one in the Winter.
Fall Meet the Firms
Meet the Firms is one of the most important events to attend, especially if you are a third or fourth year student interested in internships or full-time opportunities. However, all grade levels are welcome to attend. In the past, Meet the Firms has brought hundreds of students and dozens of firms under one roof.
Meet the Firms ensures that students network with professionals before firms’ application deadlines–some of which take place before students return to campus. Students are able and strongly encouraged to attend.
The 2024 Fall Meet the Firms will take place on Friday, October 4th from 1 PM to 6 PM on campus at Corwin Pavilion. You must be a 2024-25 UAS Member to register. More information can be found on our Instagram.
Winter Meet the Firms
Firms attending Winter Meet the Firms are generally seeking to find first-year and second-year students interested in Freshman Programs or internships that will take place the summer after their third year. However, all students are welcome to attend. Some firms will also still be recruiting for full-time offers.
The 2025 Winter Meet the Firms will take place on Friday, January 24th from 1 PM to 6 PM on-campus at the Loma Pelona Center. You must be a 2024-25 UAS Member to register. More information can be found on our Instagram
