I’m a CPA as is my S. I agree, the time for internships has passed if she will graduate in June. She needs to apply for full time positions. I’d strongly suggest that your D make an appointment and speak to someone at career services in her college ASAP and find out if more public accounting firms will be coming to interview at the school. Your D can also see if career services offers any helpful advisory services (like doing mock interviews) that might provide useful tips for future interviews.

Your D can also research public accounting firms that don’t come to her school and send an email to the person in charge of hiring with a cover letter and resume.

Your D might also consider some private companies as well. It is possible to get a CPA working for a private company in many cases (check your state board rules) if one works for a CPA and does financial statement work.
