Start your career

At Watkins Meegan, we combine Big 4 opportunities with a personal approach to our employees. You’re guaranteed diversity in your work with our roster of nearly 4,000 clients across a range of industries from government contracting and technology to construction and real estate.

You’ll also develop a mix of accounting, auditing and tax skills, while establishing yourself amongst like-minded professionals. And our open-door policy encourages friendly communication and camaraderie across all staff levels. 

But don’t just take our word for it - here are some of the reasons our team selected Watkins Meegan.

The firm’s range of services gives you the opportunity to learn more than just tax and audit. The exposure here is just more than you’re ever going to get at a private company.

Watkins Meegan invests in its staff through its tuition reimbursement program and CPE courses. The open-door policy also shows that everyone, including upper-level management, will help you and wants you to succeed.

It’s an easy transition from college to career when you join Watkins Meegan.
