Fourth year Commerce student, Malissa Skara was hired by Ernst & Young for her first co-op work term in 2011. Being an extremely valuable work experience and impressed by her abilities, Ernst & Young continued to employ Malissa for her remaining two work terms. With an eye for retaining talent found among-st co-op student hires, Malissa has been offered a full-time position with Ernst & Young upon graduation.

 “My experience at Ernst & Young has been challenging and fun. I have been fortunate enough to be part of teams made up of amazing people. I’ve advanced my education and have been encouraged to step into leadership roles.  My advice to other accounting students interested in working for Ernst & Young is to attend the networking and recruitment events hosted on-campus. Even better; set up an informational interview before recruitment starts to get a head start. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and show your interest.”
