Do You Know Where Your Next Hire is Coming From?

Many firms report they find it easy to recruit people but very hard to recruit quality people.

Recruitment used to be so easy.

An accounting firm registered as a training firm. The training firm part funded the team member’s qualification. The team member felt a loyalty to the firm on that basis and stayed at the firm seven times out of ten, for a decade or more... then things changed.

30 years in the same firm, department or role waiting for an existing partner to die, just didn’t ignite the imaginations of young accounting graduates.

Some chose an industry role or a practice role, some chose to start a family instead, some left the profession altogether.

In fact, over 300,000 left the profession between 2019 & 2021 if the Wall Street Journal is to be believed.

The exodus of auditors and tax accountants isn’t surprising given the wear and tear fuelled by long hours and a relatively low salary in relation to the extent of education and related costs.

"Our People Are Our Biggest Asset", says the firm. So why does the firm do so little to keep or recruit them?
