It's about that time again folks. I've been actively applying to a ton of Accounting firms at my alma mater (Syracuse University) and I was fortunate enough to get a handful of interviews. Anyone have any luck so far?

As far as I know, first round interviews for all the Big 4 and mid-size accounting firms are still going on here, and I believe Fordham/Baruch is going through second round office interviews now (for NYC offices).

I totally forgot about this, I have to check by my College to see if they are doing this... Is this for next Summer? How exactly do these internships work?

Checking in, I went to all Big 4's and 1 local firm. The experiences varied, and I received a few offers and 1 denial.

most banks are still holding info sessions. resume drop should be end of december/january and interviews won't actually start until then. it's going to be tough for the summer analyst class this year industry wide

All my friends have their Big 4 offers rolling in.
My finance buddy hasn't heard too much yet but has been invited to several second round interviews so far.

was just about to make a post about this. I'm interning right now at a smaller firm that audits government and non profits.
I pretty much got an offer at the end of the year but I was thinking about going the big 4 route. some of my ex coworkers already made the switch and just got hired at pwc as experienced staff. they're egging me on to follow suit.
My question is, how were your guys' experience during the interview process? how was working there? are all the horror stories true?
I'm really considering doing this because of the extensive training they'll give me. although I'm interning ATM, my training wasn't extensive and government and non profit auditing is different than private?
any input would be greatly appreciated

I was lucky enough to intern with PwC in the summer, and I'll be starting with them next Fall... It's always fun when your friends get offers from the other Big 4 and you get to talk a bunch of smack to each other.

Good luck to all of you in the interview process! I'm a freshman finance major. I am looking into switching to a double major with finance and accounting. What do all of you think? Will it be worth my time and effort? Also, could you give any pointers or advice that helped you make it or made an impact on giving you the edge over other people with the same degrees as you.

prestige goes a long way. i'm at one such school and off the top i can prob name 2-3 dozen kids i know with offers from Goldman, JP, MS, BlackRock, Deloitte, E&Y, etc for starters.
feels good to be an engineering major. those consulting/finance guys have been crashing all of our job fairs practically handing out offers on the spot.
