Why a New Grad Should Begin Their Career at Our Organization

A future with Monroe Shine: V.G. Monroe felt that to be successful in the public accounting profession, a person needs more than a college degree with a major in accounting. There are personal characteristics just as important as technical skills. In his autobiography, he listed those characteristics as: good judgment, ability to communicate with clients, ability to acquire the confidence and respect of clients, dedication and hard work. Monroe Shine uses Mr. Monroe’s standards as the benchmark for hiring employees. We look for those who are interested in a career, not just a job. We encourage all employees to be involved in local organizations and give back to the community. The Shareholders at Monroe Shine not only lead by example, but they are always ready to help employees find and develop involvement opportunities. We attribute our low employee turnover to these mentoring relationships. At Monroe Shine, our interns and new staff get the opportunity to work on both tax and audit. This is a great learning opportunity, as it allows them to gain insight into both career paths.
