My spouse is finishing up their MPA with 3/4 tests done for their CPA. Several of the Big 4 are recruiting out of the grad program, but I'm concerned that they are hiring primarily (if not entirely) for entry level positions when my spouse has 13 years of accounting experience.

Is there a route for my spouse to be hired in as an experienced hire vs fresh grad? What sort of comp range would you expect from a Big 4 for a mid-career Masters/CPA hire in a Dallas/Miami/Atlanta/Philly tier city?

They should network through the program, if company A is recruiting via their program for entry level spots, look for experience hire spots at those same companies and maybe reach out to the liaison for a contact they can dig up for that more experienced role?

I was hired as an experienced hired out of my MBA because I had previous 7 years of experience. Once the recruiter talks to you husband simply have salary in mind. Let them negotiate after. Just get hired. That’s the tough part.
