    For those of you who have worked in public accounting [Audit] (or have knowledge/thoughts on the matter), please look back to when you were an incoming associate & pass on advice that you wish you would have had.

    I’ll be coming in after completing my Master’s – I did not do an internship at this firm nor any other public accounting firm. So don’t know exactly what to expect and am feeling uncertain because although I’ve met several people during my interview process, that was very brief and I do not have any established relationships going in. Also: My audit class was not technical at all so hopefully I don’t suck at auditing lol.

    I’ll start out with a bunch of training which will hopefully prepare me for anything I need to know job-wise.

    But is there anything else I should expect/prepare for? Any tips on making a good impression? Anything they don’t tell you during training that I should know or ask about? Anything I can do during the summer before my start date to get a leg up? I suppose I am most worried about making a good impression because I know that is something I often fail at but am curious about anything else you have thougts/advice on.
