“Finding qualified talent is one of our profession’s major challenges, and what used to work simply doesn’t any longer,” said Jeff Phillips, CEO of Accountingfly. “What works? Candidate engagement. This virtual career fair format reaches candidates where they are – on their smartphones, at their homes, or at work, giving employers a unique opportunity to engage talent they would have otherwise missed.”
Only CPAs with 2+ years of experience will be able to join the meet up, giving unprecedented recruiting opportunity for participating firms. “CPAs with 2+ years of public accounting experience are in incredibly high demand,” says Phillips, “and we want to give them a direct opportunity to meet the best employers in their markets in a discreet format.”
