Accountancy firm Moore Stephens shows staff the same respectful and supportive treatment they give their clients, according to a graduate at the firm.
Moore Stephens is a multinational accountancy and professional services firm working with public, private and not-for-profit sectors. With 667 offices in 100 countries, they have built a reputation for first-class client care-an approach which one graduates believes extends to graduate trainees at the company.
Daniel, who joined the firm as an ACA Associate, says he noticed this quality before he had even joined Moore Stephens.
"The firm is not only focused on providing excellent services to its clients, but also emphasises the professional and personal development of its employees," he says.
"I decided to join Moore Stephens over other firms because of the very friendly and open working environment that I spotted during my assessment centre. Everybody was very welcoming and eager to help us throughout the whole recruitment process."
Moore Stephens prioritises an encouraging working environment and offers real training and support. Daniel says graduates undergo a range of activities to welcome them to the firm.
"We have been involved in number of intensive and in-depth training courses, welcoming social events, and opportunities to work on assignments at both the office and the client's site," he says. "This exposure to varied and interesting experiences in a lot of different industries is something that many graduates could not find at such an early career stage."
The firm offers professional qualifications to help graduates lay the foundations for their entire career.
"The accountancy qualification is recognised all over the world and offers many advantages," Daniel says. "You learn more about the business itself, acquire soft and technical skills and focus on professional values, ethics and governance."
"It also provides a number of business and networking opportunities, and room for progression once you qualify."
