FAQs
Please contact us at careers@ryanco.com with any questions
not answered below.
What are the qualifications for a Tax Consultant?
Qualified candidates will have a strong business background and a history
of extracurricular activities and work experience. A 3.0
Grade Point Average both overall and in accounting is preferred;
finance majors should have 12 hours of
accounting to qualify for many of our tax consultant positions.
My college curriculum did not include any information about state, local, federal, or
international tax issues. Does that affect my chances for an interview or potential
offer?
Ryan tax consultants receive extensive training in state, local, federal, and international
tax consulting because most students never take courses in these areas.
We do require 12 hours of accounting coursework for many, but not all,
of our positions. We also realize that your school may not have included
courses specific to state, local, federal, or international tax.
What about CPAs? Do you require applicants to be pursuing a CPA
and is there any incentive for passing the exam?
Ryan is not a CPA firm, but does value the CPA designation.
It is not, however, required to be successful or move up within the
organization. We will reimburse for preparatory courses and award an
incentive upon passing the CPA exam.
How will I know if Ryan is coming to an event on my
campus?
Please visit our campus recruiting schedule.
Does Ryan hire experienced tax professionals as well
as entry level?
Absolutely. With the continued growth we are experiencing, we appreciate
the interest of experienced tax professionals.
What benefits does Ryan offer?
Ryan offers its professionals a wide range of benefits including:
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) matching
- Paid time off
- And much more!

Benefits section of our

If asked to travel for an interview, will I be reimbursed for
expenses incurred?
Yes. Ryan will pay for associated interview expenses such
as hotel, airfare, mileage, and meals.
Can I specify locations of geographical preference?
Yes. All applicants are asked to submit their top three areas of
geographical preference during the interview process.
Our goal is to place you in your preferred location depending on needs
in that office.
How many hours will I work each week?
As with any other exempt position, the team member is expected to
dedicate the time and effort necessary to accomplish the workload.
Our professionals typically work a 50 - 55 hour workweek.
Does Ryan sponsor work visas for program participants?
Ryan does not sponsor work visas at the tax consultant
level. Experienced professionals are considered on an individual
basis.
