PROGRAM BENEFITS
All Featured Professional Partners (FPPs) receive the following benefits:
-
A dedicated Instagram post on the official Auburn BAP page. The FPP is responsible for providing a square image file (1080 x 1080 pixels). An example post can be viewed here. Canva or Adobe Express are recommended tools for content creation.
-
A feature in the School of Accountancy Blog and inclusion in the weekly recruiting newsletter, which is distributed to all accounting students. The FPP is responsible for providing any desired text and images.
-
A short video (2 minutes or less) shared on the @AuburnBAP Instagram account. Submission guidelines are provided below.
-
The option to host a brand-building event on campus during your FPP day, offering additional opportunities to engage with students between classes (see event details below).
-
An opportunity for company representatives to deliver a brief (approximately 5-minute) introduction to students enrolled in ACCT 3810: Professional Development in Accountancy (sophomores and juniors). The course meets on Mondays in the fall (spring day of the week is TBD), and introductions will typically be conducted virtually during class in the week of your feature. If representatives are already on campus, an in-person introduction may be arranged in advance.
-
Access to student engagement data through CareerFair+, including resumes submitted in advance and records of student interactions during your FPP event.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE

If materials are not received by the three-week deadline, a reminder email will be sent. If there is no response within 24 hours of that reminder, your FPP date may be reassigned to a partner on the waiting list.
