Bauer Connect: Bridging Futures – An event Recap
Last week, UH Bauer students had the opportunity of engaging with DRDA leaders from diverse backgrounds at the Bauer Connect event. The attendees experienced a dynamic lineup of presentations, participated in a lively quiz session, and engaged in a thought-provoking panel discussion, providing invaluable insights for their professional journeys.
Connecting with University and Campus:
Connecting with universities and campuses is crucial for companies like DRDA and the accounting industry. It not only allows us to share our knowledge and experience with the next generation of professionals but also provides an opportunity for students to gain real-world insights and build connections within the industry. Through events like Bauer Connect, we aim to foster a mutually beneficial relationship between academia and industry, empowering students to thrive in their future careers.
Opportunities for Growth:
For students considering their career paths, joining DRDA offers more than just a job—it’s an opportunity for growth and advancement. Unlike experienced staff who may have already established their careers, students have the advantage of a blank canvas, ready to be painted with diverse experiences and opportunities.
At DRDA, we recognize and value the fresh perspectives and innovative ideas that students bring to the table, offering them a platform to shine and make meaningful contributions from day one. Take, for example, our tax department career path: starting as Staff I, graduates progress to Staff II and then to Senior positions. With dedication and skill development, they can advance to roles such as Tax Manager/Department Manager and ultimately become Partners at twice the industry norm. This advancement is made possible because of the resources DRDA has developed to help our people succeed. The picture below lists some of those resources. If you want to know more about these resources and the opportunity for you, just give us a call or email.
A Bright Future Awaits:
As students embark on their journey with DRDA, they can look forward to a promising future filled with opportunities for personal and professional development and growth. Unlike many CPA firms, where partnership is often restricted to a select few, DRDA offers a rare opportunity for every member of our team to become a partner if they desire. We believe in treating everyone fairly and giving opportunities based on talent and hard work, ensuring that the brightest and most dedicated individuals have the chance to shape the future of our firm.
In conclusion, DRDA is dedicated to empowering students and shaping their bright futures. Join us as we bridge the gap between academia and industry, together forging a path to success.
