The number of job openings for accountants is rising for both
senior-level employees and recent college graduates still engaged in CPA
exam preparation. Big Four accounting firms are actively recruiting to
fill thousands of positions.
Deloitte hired 49,000 people in its 2011 fiscal year and plans to add the same amount for fiscal year 2012. PricewaterhouseCoopers will hire 40,000 by mid-2012.
Even larger hiring plans are underway at other firms. KPMG filled 51,000 positions in its fiscal year ended September of 2011. The company is expecting to add another 50,000 over the next five years.
At Ernst & Young, new hiring in the fiscal year ending June of 2012 is expected to reach 55,000. A similar increase is anticipated for the next fiscal year. Active recruiting is anticipated to attract 15,000 of these new employees. Much of this activity entails selecting future staffers directly from college campuses for working while they conduct CPA exam study.
Other national firms are also adding jobs for accountants. Grant Thornton plans to open 1,000 positions by the end of July 2012. As Wall Street finance jobs are eliminated, hiring of individuals with certified public accountant training is occurring across town. New York accounting firm WeiserMazars already has around 700 accountants and expects to hire 40 more at the end of 2012. That's an increase from the 30 accounting positions added in 2011 and 25 for 2010.
Recruiting firms also report that corporations are expanding their internal accounting staffs. As inside auditing commands greater attention within corporate board rooms, more accountants are needed to work even while studying in a CPA exam course.
At the public accounting firms, staff accountants are needed for a variety of positions. Deloitte has conveyed that it must fill openings within the divisions of audit, tax, consulting, and financial advisory services. Jobs exist at all levels, including accountants who are still candidates for the certified public accountant examination.
PricewaterhouseCoopers is reporting a demand for accountants who can help clients in the financial services industry navigate regulatory rules. At Ernst & Young the focus is hiring accountants for audit, tax, and advisory divisions as well as work for client companies on mergers and acquisitions.
The public accounting firms are more than a training ground for subsequent moves to the corporate environment. A greater number of management positions is arising within the accounting businesses. More clients are relying upon their accounting firms to provide advisory services. This creates senior manager positions for accountants with just two or three years of experience in a specialty area, such as insurance or real estate.
