what were your RESPONSIBILITIES as an intern?

I worked alongside audit teams to handle tasks like controls testing, evidence organization, and walkthrough support. I also joined frequent client calls and coordinated directly with audit staff, which gave me hands-on client-facing experience while adjusting to a brand-new professional environment and language.

What was your favorite/most memorable part of your internship

Getting to build genuine friendships with people in the office while exploring a new city, culture, and language!

Walk us through a day in the life of your internship?

Most days started by reviewing the morning schedule for upcoming team syncs and client calls. From there, I would connect with assigned staff members to organize deliverables, map general ledger accounts, and any other necessary tasks. I balanced that focused documentation throughout the day with coffee breaks and lunch with the rest of my awesome team! Getting to work with so many motivated and kind people was truly the highlight of my internship!
