1. MAXIMIZING YOUR CAREER
OPPORTUNITY
At Clark Schaefer Hackett,
we believe the strength of
our workforce equals the
strength of our firm. We
created CSH MAX – a
firmwide program designed
to give everyone in the firm
the best possible chance to
succeed in their role.
CSH MAX is unlike programs
found at other CPA firms –
because not every firm recognizes
the value of encouraging an
engaged, energetic workforce the
way we do.
We invest in you at every stage of your
career with specific resources for your
current role, and support that prepares
you for the next.
At CSH, we believe that success is
contagious. We know that helping you
achieve your goals today will motivate you
to pursue even greater heights tomorrow.
Our Employees Agree
We regularly ask firm employees for their
feedback. Here are a few samples of what
they have to say about CSH MAX:
“During my internship at Clark Schaefer
Hackett, I realized that this organization
truly cares about my career goals and
my development as a person.”
Josh P., Tax Intern
“I appreciate the firm taking an active
interest and investment in me and my
career.”
Hanna P., Audit Senior
Full-Circle Support
As the wheel above shows, CSH MAX
supports your entire professional
progression, from CSH candidates and
new hires to those at the height of their
careers. All six areas of CSH MAX have
been created with your development in
mind. Wherever you want to go, at CSH
we can help you Get There.
Recruiting
We’ll do our best to show you how CSH
is different, and why it might be the right
place for you. But more important, we’ll get
to know you and your career goals, so that
we help you succeed in a role that fits.

your career.

and knowledge to better serve your clients and
progress in your career. The firm provides you with
quick access to information about CPE, the CPA
exam and other certifications.
Career progression models – We’ve outlined the
skills required at every level of CSH, to eliminate the
guesswork about what it takes to get promoted. You’ll
know which skills you need to develop, and which
training opportunities are right for you.
Leadership development – The firm offers leadership
courses, materials and other resources at every level.
Select CSH professionals participate in the CSH

employees. CSH recognizes and rewards your
good work, and offers an appealing workplace
environment where you can learn, grow and thrive.
