Hi there. We don’t hire recent grads, so first step is to try to have at least 5 years under your belt before you apply.

Second, stay connected to financial statements and financial models. Work on projects where you can draw a direct link between the work that you do and real dollar impact. That’s important for us.

Third, there are other firms that do this type of work too. Alvarez, FTI are also worth speaking to.
