Big 4 Internships

Career Opportunities & Internships

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I need some help. I've wanted to work for a Big 4 firm since I was in high school. I planned on applying for a leadership program during my sophomore year and then interning during the summer after my junior year. However, my plans changed a bit. Halfway through my sophomore year, I decided that I was going to graduate in 3 years. By this time, the deadlines for the Big 4 internships had already passed. The leadership programs were for rising juniors, so I was unable to get an interview for one. Instead, this summer I interned in the tax department for a Fortune 500 company. Would it still be possible to land an internship with the Big 4 during the spring of my senior year or summer after graduation if I were to go for my Master's in Accounting right after graduation? My school has a 5 year program, or 4 years in my case that would allow me to get my Master's with only one additional year. I have a major (Accounting) GPA of 3.56 and an overall GPA of 3.70. Also, do you have any tips for getting an interview?
Thank you in advance.</p>

<p>Wow, you wanted to work for big 4 SINCE high school? I didn’t even know what Big4 was till my senior year in college D:. </p>

<p>You can apply for a full time position in your senior year, so if you don’t mind skipping out on the internship, you can still work for the big4. </p>

<p>As for your question, you should be eligible to apply for an internship if you decide to stay an extra year for your masters in accountancy.</p>
