Seem like you’re the most excited person in the world to be talking to them while still being yourself. Biggest thing in public accounting recruiting is enthusiasm and excitement, and being yourself. Extroverts always have an easier time with recruiting so if you’re like me and an introvert, fake it till you make it lol
