Outstanding experience gained
What initially piqued your interest to work for McCay Duff LLP?
During my recruiting season during third year at Carleton University, I was seeking a Co-op placement. I attended the Big Firm Wine and Cheese event where McCay Duff LLP had a table. I met a couple of young energetic staff members from the Firm and made the assumption that their energy would be representative of the Firm culture. I decided to apply to work at the Firm and thankfully got the job!
I have thoroughly enjoyed my work experience ever since.
What support did McCay Duff LLP provide you on your path to obtain the CPA and/or MAcc?
McCay Duff provided equal compensation to me as a MAcc student as those who are pursuing the more conventional path to obtaining their CPA designation (i.e. challenging the exams or taking the modules). This was very appealing to me as I was obtaining a Masters Degree as well, which I believe holds value in the marketplace.
What has been the best aspect of life at McCay Duff LLP so far?
The people. They are my family away from home. Also, the experience I have gained as a young professional has also been outstanding. I feel that I have earned a wide variety of experience, making me very well-rounded (i.e. tax, audit, review engagement experience).

The learning opportunities in both tax and auditing.

People. Co-workers develop into friendships outside of work as well. The firm’s smaller size also allows me more time to develop connections with superiors as well.
