Overview
Travel to client site or stay in the office to do some audit work, checking the accounts and spreadsheets, working with different teams for different projects and doing some mandatory trainings sessions online.
Skills
Yes, I learnt a lot of new stuff for accounting and also some excel tricks, I also learned how to communicate with my colleagues and how to work better as a team.
Responsibilities
Since I do not know much about accounting, I was not given a lot of complicated stuff, but I also need to take some responsibility for the tasks that they gave me.
Support & Guidance
I received a lot of support, all my colleagues are very nice and they are willing to teach me when I have doubts. The trainings on workday is also very helpful.
Culture
I love the unifying culture that everyone is so accepting even though my race is different from them, they are very patient when explaining stuff to me since English is not my mother tongue. The atmosphere was great, they tried to get me involved even though I was new there.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed it very much! It was the best internship I have ever had since I feel like I am contributing to the team. I had so much fun there for the past 6 weeks.
Yes
Be genuine when you do the interview and be confident and show your passion towards the job. Relax and try your best.
