About the role

As an Assurance intern you will have the opportunity to work on various aspects of a financial statement audit to develop a working knowledge of the firm’s practices in our Assurance practice. Students will learn systems and business processes. An internship with us gives the student an opportunity to combine knowledge gained in the classroom with company training and develop on-the-job technical skills while working as part of a team carrying out tasks under close coaching and supervision. Interns work directly with our seasoned professionals on client engagements rather than being assigned “busy work.” Our internship experience provides valuable insight into the public accounting industry, gives interns real world experience to apply to school knowledge, and affords the tools and resources needed to hit the ground running as a first-year associate upon college graduation.
