Finance & Accounting Intern
for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Intro about Oshkosh: "At Oshkosh, we build, serve and protect people and communities around the world by designing and manufacturing some of the toughest specialty trucks and access equipment. We employ over 18,000 team members all united by a common purpose. Our engineering and product innovation help keep soldiers and firefighters safe, is critical in building and keeping communities clean and helps people do their jobs every day."
- "THE ROLE As a year-round Finance & Accounting Intern, you will gain hands-on experience supporting Oshkosh Corporation’s financial operations while applying what you are learning in the classroom to real business situations. Opportunities are available across several Finance and Accounting teams, and interns may be matched to assignments based on their skills, interests, academic background, and business needs. Depending on your assignment, you may gain experience in areas such as corporate accounting, financial reporting, tax, treasury, financial analysis, or financial systems and controls. You’ll work alongside Finance and Accounting professionals, contribute to meaningful projects and recurring business processes, and develop an understanding of how financial information supports decision-making across a global organization. As a year-round intern, you'll have the opportunity to build deeper experience over time while maintaining flexibility around your academic schedule."
- "YOUR IMPACT As a Finance & Accounting Intern, your responsibilities may include:" then a long list of responsibilities (bullet-like sentences). We need to treat as list items.
- "Minimum Qualifications" then bullet list.
- "Standout Qualifications" then bullet list.
- "Experience You Will Gain Through this internship, you will have the opportunity to:" then bullet list.
- "WHY OSHKOSH?" then paragraphs about core values etc.
- "Pay Range $18.00 - $37.00 The above pay range reflects the minimum and maximum target pay for the position across all U.S. locations. Within this range, individual pay is determined by various factors, including the scope and responsibilities of the role, the candidate's experience, education and skills, as well as the equity of pay among team members in similar positions."
- Then "Beyond offering a competitive total rewards package, we prioritize a people-first culture and offer various opportunities to support team member growth and success." This is benefits? Not explicit benefits list. Might be considered benefits but not specific. We should only include Benefits section if posting actually states them. It mentions "competitive total rewards package" but not specifics. Might be too vague. Better to omit Benefits section unless we have concrete benefits like health insurance, 401k, etc. Not present. So we skip Benefits.
- Schedule: Not explicitly stated. The role mentions year-round intern, approximately 20 hours per week during academic year and full-time availability during summer and school breaks. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that detail.
- Pay: we have Pay Range. So include Pay section.
- About the role: we could have a section "About the role" containing the introductory paragraphs about the role and company? The instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should include About the role heading with prose summarizing the role (the "THE ROLE" paragraph). Could also include company overview? Might be part of About the role. We'll include that.
- Responsibilities: list from "YOUR IMPACT" bullet points.
- Requirements: could combine Minimum Qualifications and Standout Qualifications? The instruction says we can have Requirements and Qualifications sections separate. Usually Requirements = minimum qualifications, Qualifications = standout or preferred. We'll follow that: Requirements = Minimum Qualifications; Qualifications = Standout Qualifications.
- Skills: Not explicitly listed separate; but we could extract skills from qualifications? Might be thin. Better to omit Skills section if no explicit skills list. The posting includes skills like analytical, problem-solving, attention to detail, communication, collaboration, Excel, etc. Those are in Minimum Qualifications and Standout Qualifications. Could create Skills section but risk duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we might combine skills into Requirements/Qualifications. We'll not create separate Skills section unless there is explicit list. There's no separate "Skills" heading. So we skip Skills.
- Benefits: we decided to skip.
- Pay: include.
- Schedule: include.

Year‑round internship with approximately 20 hours per week during the academic year and full‑time availability during summer and school breaks.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract each piece.
About the role: combine company overview and THE ROLE paragraph.
Company overview: "At Oshkosh, we build, serve and protect people and communities around the world by designing and manufacturing some of the toughest specialty trucks and access equipment. We employ over 18,000 team members all united by a common purpose. Our engineering and product innovation help keep soldiers and firefighters safe, is critical in building and keeping communities clean and helps people do their jobs every day."
THE ROLE paragraph: "As a year-round Finance & Accounting Intern, you will gain hands-on experience supporting Oshkosh Corporation’s financial operations while applying what you are learning in the classroom to real business situations. Opportunities are available across several Finance and Accounting teams, and interns may be matched to assignments based on their skills, interests, academic background, and business needs. Depending on your assignment, you may gain experience in areas such as corporate accounting, financial reporting, tax, treasury, financial analysis, or financial systems and controls. You’ll work alongside Finance and Accounting professionals, contribute to meaningful projects and recurring business processes, and develop an understanding of how financial information supports decision-making across a global organization. As a year-round intern, you'll have the opportunity to build deeper experience over time while maintaining flexibility around your academic schedule."
We'll combine into one maybe two paragraphs? Could be one
with both. We'll keep as one
containing both sentences separated by space.
Responsibilities: list from "YOUR IMPACT As a Finance & Accounting Intern, your responsibilities may include:" then each line ends with a period. We'll extract each bullet.
Let's copy them:
- Supporting monthly and quarterly close processes, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and financial reporting
- Assisting with budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, and other special projects
- Supporting fixed asset accounting and related financial processes
- Preparing and reviewing financial reports, schedules, and account activity
- Assisting with sales and use tax returns, exemption certificates, and related compliance activities
- Supporting federal, state, and international income tax processes and reporting
- Conducting tax research and assisting with sales and use tax audits
- Reconciling tax accounts and maintaining information related to state income tax payments and refunds
- Supporting international tax activities, including foreign true-up calculations and country-by-country reporting
- Assisting with daily treasury operations and banking activities
- Performing bank and cash reconciliations
- Monitoring and tracking treasury operational metrics and benchmarks
- Supporting cash management activities and related financial transactions
- Assisting with financial controls, compliance requirements, and audit support
- Supporting the implementation or improvement of financial and treasury systems, processes, and procedures
- Preparing documentation, reports, invoices, expense information, and other financial records
- Identifying opportunities to improve, simplify, or automate Finance and Accounting processes
- Collaborating with Finance professionals and business partners across Oshkosh
Make sure each ends with a period; we keep as is.
Requirements (Minimum Qualifications):
- Pursuing an undergraduate degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related business field
- Interest in developing a career in accounting, finance, tax, treasury, or a related area
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
- Ability to communicate and collaborate effectively with team members and business partners
- Ability to work year-round, with approximately 20 hours per week during the academic year and full-time availability during summer and school breaks
Note: The last bullet about work schedule is also schedule info; but it's in Minimum Qualifications. We'll keep it there; also we have schedule section later maybe duplicate. But we should not duplicate content? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we include schedule in Requirements and also separate Schedule section, that duplicates. Better to keep schedule only in Schedule section and not duplicate in Requirements. However the Minimum Qualifications includes that schedule requirement; we could move it to Schedule section and remove from Requirements. But then we would be omitting that detail from Requirements, which is substantive. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can't omit. So we need to keep it somewhere. If we put it in Schedule section, we still preserve it. We could keep it in Requirements and also have Schedule section referencing same info? That would duplicate. Duplication is not prohibited explicitly, but they said remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplication. So we should place the schedule info only once. Where best? The schedule info is more naturally in Schedule section. So we will omit it from Requirements and keep it in Schedule. Then we need to adjust Requirements list accordingly (remove that bullet). Let's check if any other schedule info appears elsewhere: Not really. So we will have Schedule section with that detail.
Thus Requirements list becomes:
- Pursuing an undergraduate degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related business field
- Interest in developing a career in accounting, finance, tax, treasury, or a related area
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
- Ability to communicate and collaborate effectively with team members and business partners
Now Qualifications (Standout Qualifications) list:
- Experience, coursework, or interest in one or more of the following is a plus:
- Financial or managerial accounting
- Corporate accounting and financial reporting
- Taxation
- Treasury or cash management
- Budgeting and forecasting
- Account reconciliations and journal entries
- Financial analysis
- Internal controls, audit, or compliance
- Microsoft Excel and financial analysis tools
- Accounting or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems
- Data analytics, reporting, or visualization
- Process improvement or automation
- Strong organizational and time-management skills
