Read the Code of Practice to check the guidelines that participating employers adhere to. In basic terms it is when participating recruiters manage their recruitment at the same time, adhering to a Code of Practice. Participating employers include Big 4, BDO, Grant Thornton and several smaller firms. Note that not all employers recruit through the Milkround, some will recruit later in the academic year. Hints & Tips - Start applications as soon as you can. - Practice online tests through http://pace.ulster.ac.uk Attend the Careers seminars which will be facilitated by several of the organisations you apply to now or in the future. These sessions will provide professional and valuable advice and practical sessions which will help you with applications, interviews, online tests and much more. (detailed information, dates and locations will be provided within the next couple of weeks) - Seek advice from your Career Development Centre on applications, online tests and interviews. - Attend the Autumn Placement and Careers Fair on Monday 13th October in Jordanstown or 20th October in Coleraine as most of the recruiters will be attending. - Go for it! It’s a busy time but if you secure that job you want you can concentrate on the rest of final year knowing where you are going after you graduate. 9 EY is one of the world’s leading professional services firms. 190,000 people work across 150 countries for clients all over the world.

The Code is designed to apply to all member firms in Northern Ireland recruiting from these universities. Where necessary, please ensure your respective offices in RoI are aware of the Code. The Code does not apply where students are being recruited from universities outside of Northern Ireland. For the avoidance of any doubt, if your firm is recruiting from the two local universities in the timescale below, the Code of Practice applies and therefore your firm should adhere to the dates below. Timescale Closing date for applications Wed 22 October 2014 Interviews to commence no sooner than Mon 3 November 2014 Offers to be issued no earlier than Fri 21 November 2014 Closing date for offer acceptance/rejection Fri 5 December 2014 Northern Ireland Accountancy Recruitment (Milkround) It is encouraging to note that there are an increasing number of Member firms (as well as a growing number of other employers) seeking to recruit within the Northern Ireland Accountancy Recruitment (“Milkround”). As a consequence, instances of students having to decide between two presentations in one evening have occurred. I would encourage members firms to make their own arrangements as a matter of priority for their presentations and interviews with the careers departments at QUB and University of Ulster. Please note, the two universities cannot make firm arrangements until such times as this Code has been issued and firms will be booked on a first come first served basis after the issue of the Code. All offers of appointment following presentation and interview period should give students a reasonable period of time to accept an offer and no offer should require a student to accept earlier than 5 December 2014. Where is has been decided not to make an offer to a student, this should be communicated to the student at the same time as offer letters are being issued to other students. 20 On-line and Direct Applications It is accepted that the on-line method is becoming a more popular form of application. Firms should ensure that procedures are in place to consider online and hard copy applications in an equitable manner. Closing dates for all methods should be advertised clearly. Technology should support easy access and use of the on-line method. Recruitment other than during the Milkround It is open to firms to interview and make offers to students who approach them on an individual basis at any time. Any offers which arise from such interviews should also give students a reasonable amount of time in which to accept or decline the offer. Equal Opportunities All firms should demonstrate commitment to equality of opportunity in employment as required by the Equality Commission and the Equality and Human Right Commission. Form of Offer All offers of appointment should be made in writing and should clearly state the terms of engagement and any conditions attached to the offer. After an offer has been made, firms should not initiate or encourage any further contact with the students until the offer has been accepted or declined. This includes any correspondence regarding the firm itself, acceptance of the offer, and the proposed terms of employment.
