The purpose of this study is to determine what factors accounting students consider important in the selection of their first job. These preferences are identified and analyzed with respect to individual characteristics such as gender, age, career aspirations, and work experiences. In addition, the effects of the job interviewing process on students perceptions of the relative importance of the various job attributes is examined.
