Summer 2027/Winter 2028 State & Local Tax Internship
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and 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. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
Content sections:
- Overview (company description) maybe as "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is a heading for description of role. The overview includes company description and location info. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About Baker Tilly". But instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content accordingly.
We have:
- Responsibilities: The "You Will Have The Opportunity To ..." bullet list (actually many bullet-like sentences). Also "You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are ..." maybe also responsibilities? Actually those are more like "You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are ..." maybe could be considered "Qualifications" or "Skills"? But we can treat them as part of responsibilities? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to identify lists.
Let's parse the posting:
Overview (first paragraph) about Baker Tilly.
Then "Please discuss the work location status with your Baker Tilly talent acquisition professional..." (metadata). Then EEO boilerplate (remove). Then unsolicited resumes note (remove). Then recruitment agency note (remove). Then "Responsibilities Job Description: Are you looking to gain experience..." This is a heading? Actually "Responsibilities Job Description:" maybe they intend that as heading. Then paragraphs: "As a State & Local Tax Intern at Baker Tilly (BT), you will deliver tax advisory and compliance services to clients. As one of the fastest growing firms..." etc.
Then "You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are considering a long-term career..." bullet list? Actually it's a paragraph with multiple sentences separated by line breaks? It reads:
"You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are considering a long-term career in public accounting and want exposure to the industry
Value your development and want to work for a firm whose owners have both their clients’ and employees’ best interests in mind and are transparent in their decisions
Want to grow professionally and develop your client service and technical accounting skills to build a strong foundation now, for tomorrow"
These are three bullet-like items but not formatted as list. Could treat as
- .
Then "You Will Have The Opportunity To Gain hands-on experience..." etc. That's a list of many items separated by line breaks.
Then "Education Currently enrolled or pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree program in Accounting or a related business discipline from an accredited institution. JD/LLM preferred.
Must have at least one academic term remaining following completion of the internship."
That's qualifications/requirements.
Then "Experience No prior professional experience is required. Previous internship, academic, leadership, volunteer, customer service, or other relevant experience and demonstrated interest in accounting, or professional services are preferred."
Then "Certifications / Licensure Required On track to meet the educational requirements for CPA exam eligibility and/or Bar exam prior to the start of a full-time Associate position. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer-sponsored visa sponsorship, now or in the future. A resume and unofficial transcript(s) are required as part of the application process. Candidates must be at least 18 years of age."
Then "Knowledge & Technical Skills Foundational accounting knowledge developed through academic coursework preferred.
Ability to conduct basic research, analyze information, and document findings clearly and accurately. Openness to learning emerging technologies, including AI-enabled tools, responsibly to support learning, efficiency, and problem solving. Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including Excel, Word, and Outlook."
Then "Professional Skills Clear written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
Curiosity, learning agility, and willingness to ask questions, seek guidance, and apply feedback. Effective and respectful collaboration in a team-oriented environment. Organization, time management, attention to detail, and reliability in meeting deadlines. Professionalism, integrity, accountability, and sound judgment. Commitment to quality, continuous learning, and responsive client service."
Then "Additional Information The pay rate ranges for this job position are listed below. Actual compensation is influenced by a variety of relevant factors including but not limited to applicant's skills, prior experience, qualifications, degrees, professional certifications, work arrangements and geographic location. Baker Tilly offers a comprehensive compensation and benefits package to eligible employees. In Seattle, WA: pay rate range is $28.75 to $96.60 In California: pay rate range is $27.50 to $109.20 In Denver, CO: pay rate range is $27.50 to $92.40 In New York City: pay rate range is $31.25 to $105.00 In Chicago, IL: pay rate range is $27.50 to $92.40 In Tewksbury, MA: pay rate range is $28.75 to $96.60 The national pay rate range is $25.00 to $84.00"
Thus we have Pay info.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe overview), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Education + Experience + Certifications), Qualifications (maybe overlapping), Skills (Knowledge & Technical Skills + Professional Skills), Benefits (not explicitly stated besides "comprehensive compensation and benefits package" but no details; we should not create Benefits unless specific content). Pay section we have specific pay ranges, so we can include Pay.
Schedule not mentioned, so omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include boilerplate EEO etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include overview description (company description) maybe as About the role? Or maybe we can have an "About Baker Tilly" but not in allowed headings list. The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for those sections. Probably we should stick to those headings where applicable. For overview, we could use About the role.
Thus:
About the role
Baker Tilly is a leading advisory, tax and assurance firm, providing clients with a genuine coast-to-coast and global advantage in major regions of the U.S. and in many of the world’s leading financial centers – New York, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston. Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP and Baker Tilly US, LLP (Baker Tilly) provide professional services through an alternative practice structure in accordance with the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct and applicable laws, regulations and professional standards. Baker Tilly US, LLP is a licensed independent CPA firm that provides attest services to its clients. Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP and its subsidiary entities provide tax and business advisory services to their clients. Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP and its subsidiary entities are not licensed CPA firms. Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP and Baker Tilly US, LLP, trading as Baker Tilly, are independent members of Baker Tilly International, a worldwide network of independent accounting and business advisory firms in 141 territories, with 43,000 professionals and a combined worldwide revenue of $5.2 billion. Visit bakertilly.com or join the conversation on LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram. Please discuss the work location status with your Baker Tilly talent acquisition professional to understand the requirements for an opportunity you are exploring.
We removed EEO etc.
Now Responsibilities: we have two sets: "You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are ..." and "You Will Have The Opportunity To Gain hands-on experience...". Both are lists of items. We'll combine maybe into one responsibilities list? But they are somewhat different: first set is about enjoyment/motivation; second set is about opportunity/gain. Could treat both as responsibilities? Actually they are more like "You will enjoy this role if you..." which is more about candidate fit, maybe qualifications. But we can still put them under Responsibilities as bullet points. However we also have a separate "Education", "Experience", "Certifications / Licensure Required", "Knowledge & Technical Skills", "Professional Skills". Those could go under Requirements, Qualifications, Skills.
We need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps we can combine Education, Experience, Certifications into a single "Requirements" section. And Knowledge & Technical Skills + Professional Skills into "Skills". And "You Will Enjoy This Role If You Are ..." maybe could be part of "Qualifications"? But we don't have a Qualifications section separate from Requirements? The instruction lists both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We could use Qualifications for the education/experience/certifications, and Requirements for the duties? Hmm.
Better: Use "Responsibilities" for the duty list (the "You Will Have The Opportunity To..." list). Use "Requirements" for education, experience, certifications. Use "Skills" for knowledge & technical and professional skills. Use "About the role" for overview. Use "Pay" for pay ranges.
We need to decide what to put in Responsibilities: The "You Will Have The Opportunity To Gain hands-on experience..." list is definitely duties/opportunities. Also maybe "As a State & Local Tax Intern at Baker Tilly (BT), you will deliver tax advisory and compliance services to clients." That's a duty. So we can include that as a bullet.
Thus Responsibilities list items:
- Deliver tax advisory and compliance services to clients.
- Gain hands-on experience in state and local taxation.
- Maintain and expand knowledge base in the multi-state tax area by working on various projects including, but not limited to, conducting research and preparing memorandum on SALT issues (for individuals, corporations, and flow-through entities), assisting in M&A due diligence, voluntary disclosure programs, and various compliance matters.
- Experience projects involving sales and use taxes, realty transfer taxes, income / franchise taxes, gross receipts taxes, real and personal property taxes, excise taxes, taxes imposed on local level, and unclaimed property.
- Assist with addressing issues and questions for internal clients and potential prospects.
- Participate in our intern orientation, technical training and development program designed to provide the tools needed to contribute to client engagements.
- Experience on-the-job training through real work engagements, showcasing how your academic experience translates to the professional environment.
- Learn directly from experienced associates, seniors, managers and partners with specialized experience and technical knowledge across numerous industries and services.
- Build friendships and strong work relationships while gaining valuable experience.
- Demonstrate your performance and ability to join Baker Tilly as a full-time associate.
Also maybe include "As one of the fastest growing firms in the nation, BT offers you upward career trajectory, flexibility in how and where you get your work done and meaningful relationships with clients, teammates and leadership who truly care about you and your development." That's more about benefits but could be
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
