NABA invites accounting, business, and finance professionals with a bachelor’s degree or higher to participate in either the physical career expo or the virtual career expo on Friday, June 15, 2012.

Employers include Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, Raytheon, Google, Walmart, Boeing and Coca-Cola. The positions are entry level all the way to six-figure management, according to NABA president and CEO Calvin Harris, Jr.
Approximately 1,500 NABA members are expected to attend the four-day convention in person, generating $2.1 million in business in Phoenix. The NABA convention and expo are scheduled to take place June 13-16 at the Sheraton Phoenix Downtown.
