Career Compass Program:
Discover a new direction. Take the plunge. Whoever you want to become, our
Career Compass Program will show you how.

Learn more about yourself, develop interpersonal skills and understand how
to make smart career decisions. The Ernst & Young Career Compass Program
will give you the direction you’re looking for.

Through the structured learning sessions and workshops included in this
unique program you’ll understand more about us and gain the skills that
will help you grow from student to professional. You’ll be equipped to make
informed choices about electives and majors for the rest of your degree,
regardless of whether you are undertaking an accounting degree or studying
another field.

Introduced to the Ernst & Young culture, you’ll be invited to network with
peers and experienced professionals and share your ideas and aspirations
for the future. Demonstrate that you’re a high achiever and you could be
invited to interview for our Vacationer Program.
