Leigh Carter,
Lead Campus Recruiter - Canada

Email: leigh.carter@ca.ey.com

I started in the audit practice at EY back in the fall of 2000 after graduating from Ivey at the University of Western Ontario. After four years auditing in our Technology, Communications and Entertainment group (TCE) I was promoted to audit manager. At this point I took an eight-month leave of absence from work and moved out to Whistler, B.C. I took full advantage of what Whistler had to offer: skiing, golfing, hiking, and fishing. However, the whole time I was thinking about my next career path move. The great thing about EY is that there are lots of opportunities for career movement within the firm. Opportunities include transferring to another service line such as Tax or Corporate Finance, or even transferring to another office in another country. When I returned from Whistler, I decided to join the Human Resources group as a manager in recruiting. After having a baby boy named Griffin last year, I have returned to take on the role of the Lead Recruiter for Ernst & Young in Canada. So, that is my EY story thus far… and I know there are still a few more chapters left to unfold for me here at Ernst & Young!

Gillian started out in the Downtown Toronto audit practice five years ago after graduating from McGill University. After four years auditing in our Retail, Distribution and Manufacturing (RDM) audit practice she was promoted to audit manager and moved into campus recruiting full-time. I have been in the role for 1 year now and am really excited to get to know all of the Schulich students this September (and see some familiar faces)! I am also an avid traveller, having studied in Australia and Italy, and vacationed in New Zealand, Italy, France, Greece, Hawaii, California, New York, and numerous other places in the U.S.

Kelly Millar,
Campus Recruiter - Central Canada

Email: kelly.j.millar@ca.ey.com

My name is Kelly Millar and I am the Campus Recruiter for Central Canada at Ernst & Young. So how did I get here? I started out in our Downtown Toronto office as a summer intern in our HR group after graduating from the University of Western Ontario. I always enjoyed helping out with recruiting events as an intern, so when an opportunity came up in 2006 to work 100% for campus recruiting, I jumped at the chance! So lucky me- I get to meet many of you when I come out to visit you at Schulich. I love working here because I get to organize and attend all of our great summer intern events, such as a wine tasting, golf lessons, Blue Jays games, numerous nights out on the town, as well as our annual intern conference in Florida.

Today, clients expect their professional advisers to have deep knowledge of the industries in which they operate. In performing an audit, providing tax advice, structuring a transaction, or advising on e-business, deep industry experience is no longer an option – it's essential.

That's why industry focus is fundamental to KPMG's approach. We believe that we add value for our clients by having a thorough understanding of their industries – and we invest continuously to build our knowledge of the industries we serve.

Across Canada, we field multi-disciplinary teams of audit, tax and financial advisory professionals focused on the needs of key industry sectors. Using KPMG's global reach, the skills and talents of our people and some of the latest in knowledge-sharing tools and communications, our teams provide industry-specific services that can add real value to our clients.

Chris Bennett
Campus Recruiting Manager, GTA KPMG in Canada

Email: chrisbennett@kpmg.ca

Chris Bennett is KPMG’s Campus Recruiting Manager for the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Chris has recently assumed this role in addition to maintaining a client service profile in the Consumer Markets group, which he has been a member of since January 2005. He graduated with honours in 2004 from the University of Ottawa, majoring in accounting, and qualified as a CA in 2006. Chris’s professional career began at KPMG’s Ottawa office, where he gained valuable co-op experience. In 2007, through KPMG’s Global Mobility Program, Chris went on a short term secondment to KPMG in South Africa’s Johannesburg office.

As an auditor, Chris has worked on and helped managed engagements for both privately and publicly owned clients operating both locally and globally within the manufacturing, retail, distribution, professional services, and energy and natural resources industries. Such involvement has provided Chris with the opportunity to gain valuable working knowledge of IFRS, US GAAP, and Brazilian GAAP.

Once an active member of campus initiatives through his many roles in student government, Chris is ideally suited to return to campus and share his knowledge and insight into the professional world with university students and prospective CAs.

Hello Everyone! My name is Krista Mooney and it is a pleasure to introduce myself as the new GTA Campus Recruitment Manager for the Audit and Assurance Group (AAG) at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC). I began my career with PwC in 2002 as a summer student in the downtown Toronto office, and joined full time in 2003 upon my graduation from Queen's Commerce. Since this time, I have worked on a variety of clients including manufacturing, retail, not-for-profit, insurance and mutual fund clients. In August 2006, I took advantage of PwC's international opportunities and spent ten months working in our PwC New York office within their Alternative Investments practice. I came back to PwC Toronto in the summer of last year and joined the Investment Management practice within AAG. My past five years at PwC have been both fun and rewarding.
