Baker Tilly Presentation
Thursday, March 30th: 6:00pm
Jepson 118
Dress: Business Casual 
From Baker Tilly's recruiter: "This presentation focuses on not only asking the right questions, but also how you can ask them. We will discuss how you can set yourself apart with questions- in the interview process, at the actual interview or pre-interview social event, as an intern or staff, and as you progress forward with your career. We will go over sample questions that go above and beyond the “canned” questions interviewers typically see. We will also discuss how you can put yourself in a good situation to get a full-time return offer during your internship, whether it is at a Big 4 or a regional firm."
