Match your Major: Recruiter Introduction and Professional Panel

Virtual Workshop - Friday, January 27, 11 AM- 1 PM PST - Hosted by KPMG

Geared toward students in Accounting, Finance, and IT.

Are you dreading the “what practice are you interested in” question from recruiters this spring? Do you feel overwhelmed trying to figure out all the options and where you best fit? Join KPMG’s “Match Your Major” event to hear more from our practice professionals across the firm. You’ll hear from a wide range of professionals grouped by major who will speak about their specific practice, who they are looking to hire, and what their day to day looks like. Students are generally surprised by the wide range of opportunities KPMG offers and even if you think you know the practice you would like to apply with– you very well might hear about a practice that is a better fit for you!


We hope to provide some insight for students into where a career in public accounting can take you and to showcase the wide variety of backgrounds we hire into the firm to serve our clients in all aspects of their business.
