Interns perform clerical and routine accounting tasks supporting an operating unit. They must maintain internal controls and ensure accounting procedures comply with GAAP while assisting with inquiries and vendor coordination.
The part‑time Finance Internship provides on‑the‑job experience across areas such as corporate cash management, employee benefits fund management, foreign exchange/commodities risk management, corporate funding, accounts receivable, and supplier finance. Interns perform the same tasks as entry‑level Finance Analysts, contributing to real‑world projects.
Candidates must be enrolled in a 4‑year accredited university pursuing a bachelor’s or master’s degree in finance, economics, business, or a related technology field, maintain at least a 3.0 GPA, and have completed 12 semester hours at a 4‑year university. Transfer students must also meet the 12‑hour requirement.
Success requires accuracy, attention to detail, knowledge of financial markets and analysis tools, strong planning and organization abilities, and the capacity to communicate complex concepts clearly. Problem‑solving skills and an understanding of internal control procedures are also essential.
Applicants should submit a resume and unofficial transcript and monitor the email linked to the application for updates. The hourly rate ranges from $22.50 to $40.25 based on degree and academic progress, and eligible interns may receive paid time off, holidays, volunteer days, housing stipend, relocation assistance, and medical coverage. Relocation is available, but visa sponsorship is not.
