We've structured our practice internally to provide an optimum level of
exposure and contact to other people and ideas within the firm, creating a
closeness and uniformity of purpose that we believe is unusual for a firm our size. It has also allowed the unique assets that each person may have to
offer to come to the fore, rather than be lost in the system. Client assignments are a team effort, and may last from one week to a few months. Teams are multidisciplinary and industry-focused. And though our practice is conducted locally, seldom do out-of-town assignments exceed four or five weeks a year.

Our comprehensive orientation program will familiarize you with our approach to the practice of public accounting, tax and consulting, our workpaper and file techniques, and our general office administrative procedures.

From the first year staff members, to partners, our goal is that all of our professionals receive formal continuing professional education each year. These strong programs utilize Reicin Pollack's own experts, as well as outside specialists.
You will also be encouraged to attend industry-related courses, conferences
and seminars that will expand your working knowledge of our clients'
businesses. At Reicin Pollack, we're aware of the importance that up-to-the-minute training plays in developing and keeping up your skills.

Demonstrated improvement in technical abilities, resourcefulness and
initiative results in assignments of increased responsibility. Promotion to
supervisory and managerial levels reflects a proficiency in planning
engagements, training and supervising staff assistants, and maintaining
effective client relations.
Through your career at Reicin Pollack, you will receive continued guidance and counseling from many of our partners and managers, fostering a variety of
viewpoints on various aspects of professional development. We believe that
promoting professional relationships among levels of our firm is key.
At Reicin Pollack, your performance contributes to our growth. And equally important, it contributes to yours.
