Alexandria, VA – March 2, 2022 – Kearney & Company, the premier Certified Public Accounting (CPA) firm focused on the government, has been named a 2022 Top Entry Level Employer and a Top Intern Employer by CollegeGrad.
For more than 15 years, the listings have recognized employers that hire large numbers of college students and college graduates. Each year CollegeGrad conducts surveys of more than 400 employers to determine which companies to honor. In 2022, Kearney projects hiring 80 entry-level team members and 31 interns.
“Part of Kearney’s commitment to culture includes creating an environment that makes transitioning from college to the professional world a smooth experience,” said Erin Ogburn, chief people officer. “We’re honored to be recognized for our efforts to build a great place to work for entry-level and intern team members.”
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kearney has adjusted its operations – including recruiting, new hire onboarding, and internships – to telework as needed to keep its team members safe.
“With the ever-changing scenarios and circumstances surrounding the pandemic, incorporating creative and intentional thinking was crucial over the past two years, all while keeping our candidates’ and Kearney employees’ wellbeing in the forefront of our minds,” Makenzie Shearson, manager, university relations, told CollegeGrad. “In hindsight, Kearney’s flexibility and empathetic mentality focusing around taking care of our people, especially in a time of crisis, was and still is a major differentiator in the candidacy market for us.”
