On April 3, RBG held its annual Accelerate Leadership Conference (ALC) with 19 students from regional universities. Held for its eighth consecutive year, the conference continues to be a cornerstone of our recruiting strategy. It provides a unique opportunity to connect with top-tier talent and offers students a comprehensive introduction to our firm and the Memphis community.

Day One Activities

The students’ first day at the conference started with an intern panel, which facilitated conversations with RBG employees who discussed their career paths from interns to professionals. Following the panel, a tour of the office gave an inside view of RBG’s operations. Next, New Memphis conducted an informative session highlighting the numerous opportunities the city provides young professionals, from career growth to lifestyle benefits.

Evening Social Event

After a day of learning, the evening was about relaxation and fun for attendees. They began with a challenging and exciting team-building activity, allowing students to collaborate in an interactive environment. Afterward, they dined at a historic restaurant off Main Street to unwind and enjoy local cuisine while mingling. The night ended with trivia, where students and staff teamed up in a friendly competition.

Day Two Highlights

The second day of the conference started with a breakfast mixer, allowing students to connect with RBG’s partners and managers. After breakfast, RBG’s Young Professionals Group shared their experiences as accountants at RBG, covering their duties and providing guidance for moving from college to a full-time job. The day included interactive sessions with plenty of time for questions, helping students picture their roles within the firm. The conference concluded with student interviews for internship opportunities.

“With ALC, RBG provides a special opportunity to accounting students interested in our firm and profession,” says Mimi McCarroll, HR and Recruiting Coordinator. “We were incredibly impressed by the group of attendees this year, and we enjoyed getting to learn more about each student. The 2025 ALC cohort makes us excited about the firm’s future and the future of public accounting!”

This year’s event has been a resounding success, and we are eager to see the lasting impact these young professionals will have on our firm and the broader accounting community.
