I was constantly contacted by recruiters while in public accounting, but I mostly ignored them. When I decided to leave, I asked my college accounting professor, who was my mentor, for advice. He recommended Alliance Resource Group, saying he referred all his alumni who wanted to make a career move to them. It was a great suggestion! I left a message and received a call back the same day. The recruiter spent over an hour with me on Zoom, discussing my skills and what I wanted to do next. She really listened and had great advice about my options. She told me about several opportunities that led to interviews at three companies. The entire process was incredibly positive. She was a terrific advocate for me.
