Sadbuttrue – don’t knock Touro’s education so much – they actually do a pretty good job of teaching the technical side of accounting (my major). What they don’t teach is how to get along in the business world, where “yeshivisisms” just don’t cut it. As a result, people who are technically competent often don’t get a look, since they don’t know how to “fit in” at work. I know that my employer (a large multinational entity) will not generally look at a Touro resume without some work experience because of this, unless there is something really special or unusual that catches someone’s eye.
