Globe and Mail | Why Young Accountants Are Choosing Richter

Looking for the right place to start your CPA career? The Globe and Mail recently interviewed Arie Pesner and Emily Grostern, recent graduates who found their ideal fit at Richter during their search for CPA internships. While interviewing with several firms, Arie kept asking herself: “Do I feel the same way I did at Richter?” In the end, the answer was clear.

Arie chose Richter because it aligned with her values and offered something different: a culture focused on entrepreneurial spirit and client relationships. “Richter checked all my boxes,” she shared. “The firm’s focus on entrepreneurial clients really resonated with me.”

Why Richter Stands Out for Aspiring CPAs

Richter’s unique two-platform model—combining business advisory services and family office expertise—provides students with diverse learning opportunities. From audit to business restructuring, Arie’s career at Richter has expanded in new and exciting directions, all within a supportive environment that encourages personal and professional growth.

Collaboration and Mentorship: Keys to Career Success

It’s not just the career development that stands out—it’s also the culture of collaboration and mentorship. Emily echoed this sentiment, highlighting the importance of teamwork and the personal connections made during her internship. From day one, interns at Richter are paired with mentors and performance advisors, guiding them through their journey and helping them reach their career goals. “There is such a strong emphasis on our departments working together, which is really unique. Even working in the audit department, we work a lot with our tax department and our family office services, so there is a lot of collaboration amongst the firm to be able to provide our client with the best possible service, tailored to their needs,” Emily says.
