The Accounting Department and the SCU Accounting Association (SCUAA) co-hosted the annual Winter Accounting/A&IS Career Fair (WACF) on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, from 1:00-4:00 pm in the Locatelli Center for Student Involvement. Although 90 students registered to attend, about 45 students checked in upon arrival to this event that hosted 20 firms. Attending firms received a digital resume booklet containing 62 student resumes and students received a firm flyer booklet in preparation for the event. Students in attendance enjoyed networking with professionals and learning more about the accounting profession.

Thank you to the following firms that attended:

In addition to this event, the SCUAA held a workshop before WACF to prepare students for not only the career fair but also for applying for internships and interviews. At the Pre-WACF workshop, SCUAA officers shared important event details and tips on how to have meaningful conversations with professionals. Noël Kreidler, Associate Director of Career Development and Campus Integration: Business and Entrepreneurship at SCU, also spoke at the workshop to provide students with guidance on creating their resumes.  Special thank you to Noël for the continuous support and guidance she provides to students within the Leavey School of Business! These efforts contributed to firms reporting the students were well-prepared for the event.

Given the current recruiting landscape, the WACF career fair will be held in the same venue on January 27, 2026. Another event to take note of is the annual Meet the Firms career fair, which will be in fall quarter on October 1, 2025.
