Lateral Partner Opportunities in the New York CPA Market

Robert Fligel, CPA

While organic growth remains slow, New York CPA firms with long-term expansion in mind are increasingly turning to lateral hiring strategies in order to add new business. This creates an opportunity for fast-track professionals, who are finding their skills and talents in demand. Although traditional hiring methods still have their place, lateral hiring allows firms to take fewer risks when seeking potential candidates, while still obtaining talented professionals. By vetting experienced partners already established within the field, firms are achieving faster growth and avoiding the potential pitfalls of untested, unknown hires.
