满足Meelah & 布兰登: 2021 保证 & 顾问实习生

Q: What type of work did you do as an 保证 & 顾问实习生?

Meelah: Last summer I had the opportunity to work with the 保证 and 咨询 practice and this summer I worked with them again. When I first started interning with Clearview, my main responsibility was to assist in auditing contributions for employee benefit plans. 更具体地说 , I tested these contributions by first reviewing all the payroll information sent from the client and plan sponsor. Then I used a spreadsheet to determine how these contributions were calculated and compared these calculations to the company’s records to make sure no discrepancies exist. 今年夏天, I continued to perform 贡献的测试 with some of the same clients I worked with last year. 今年, we won some new clients, so I had the opportunity to learn how to perform rollover testing, remittance testing and benefit payment testing.

布兰登: As an intern at Clearview, I had the opportunity to work on a host of different kinds of projects including financial statements audit, financial statements reviews, and employee benefit plans. I took part in the audit process of a local non-profit organization, a global technology company, and a construction networking organization, 举几个例子. I helped the audit team complete audit programs, 领导表, subsequent cash disbursements testing, 贡献的测试, and a host of other assignments, all of which facilitated the audit process.

Q: What did you enjoy about your internship with Clearview?

Meelah: What I enjoy most about Clearview is the diversity and inclusion. The environment is filled with different dimensions of people that all bring unique qualities and characteristics to the table. 除此之外, I feel that Clearview prioritizes inclusiveness by planning events and meetings throughout the summer internship program that allowed my peers and my self the opportunity to connect with some of the staff. I enjoyed hearing everyone’s personal stories and experiences at Clearview.

布兰登: Thanks to the people at Clearview, my time at the firm has been enjoyable. 在去年Clearview, 我所遇见的每个人, both in and out of the audit practice showed a genuine willingness to help me whenever I asked a question or was unsure about something. I also enjoyed the events we had, especially those that involved experienced employees, as they often shared a lot of valuable information with us such as their experiences and the work they do.

Q: How will your internship with clearview help you during your remaining semesters of school as well as with your career?

Meelah: Working in the 保证 and 咨询 practice has definitely provided me with the necessary insight of understanding the role and responsibilities of an auditor. This semester I will be taking an auditing course and I plan to take my problem-solving skills, analytical skills and auditing experience into the classroom. 整体, interning with Clearview has helped me narrow down on the type of path I want to take as a future accountant and has made me strongly consider the auditing field.

布兰登: Given the fact that I am yet to take my audit class, everything that I have learned about audit during my internship will provide me with a solid base going in that the class. I have also been able to better my Excel skills thanks to associates within the department whom I have closely worked. 在一些场合, my teammates at Clearview shared their knowledge with me, which has also pushed me to learned a few Excel tricks of my own.

Q: What made your internship experience better than you anticipated?

Meelah: What made my internship better than anticipated is sharing this experience with other interns and networking with other Clearview employees. Clearview has really made me feel like I am a part of the team.

布兰登:整体, my time at Clearview has been an amazing experience because not only have I learned a lot of new things, but I also had the opportunity to meet some amazing people and made new friends.
