My internship is conveniently located about a mile up the road from the University of Maryland campus in College Park. Although I don’t have strict schedule I agreed with my supervisor that it would be best to show up in the morning when most of the employees are working in order to communicate and work with them more efficiently. When it comes to responsibilities, the buildings and facilities tracking report is the most time-consuming and demanding responsibility I have been assigned, as it requires me to follow several steps, pulling different reports from the accounting system to reconcile and later double-check my work, taking at least one quarter of my time in the office monthly. Also, my responsibilities also require me to compile reports on information and the anticipated cost of future scientific conferences and identify and report ConcurGov rejects to travel specialist, both consuming about a tenth of my time in the office. Finally, the rest of my time is divided almost equally among special projects with the deputy director and the Chief of fiscal services that range from creating special documents on word and excel to double checking accounting in reports and getting trained by one of the specialist on what to do in special situations in the reports or doing individual training with FMMI courses on AgLearn. One class that has helped me throughout this time in my internship is my accounting courses because almost all the assignments require a certain knowledge of
The purpose of the proposed study is to explore how interns are influenced by the internship in regards to their career choice. The data will be collected from the three different field sites; Higbee and Associates, Legal Aid Society of Orange County and Public Defenders Office of Santa Ana with assessing total of 50-60 interns who will be participating in these three different field sites. Using the previous studies as a guideline I will use the combination of interviews and questionnaires to assess the attitudes of the interns regarding the before and after the internship. After assessing the interns the proposed study will conduct a follow-up study with the interns after six years to see the impact of the internship on the career
My practice I and practice II classes have prepared me well for my internship. I found myself recalling on a lot of tools learned from those classes when I am assigned for a specific task. One tool learned in practice I class was to help client
I am interning at VCC: The Gary Center in La Habra. I currently intern Wednesdays and Fridays for five hours each day. On Wednesdays, I am in the upstairs office all five hours working in the front office. Currently VCC: The Gary Center is going through the process of moving to another location. After merging with Vista Community Center in March 2016, our agency has expanded and moving our services to a bigger location. This whole process has brought disorder into the agency and high levels of stress. As an intern walking into a changing agency is was pretty easy to learn the new rules. My supervisor Ana Palafox, provides me with different tasks every Wednesday. I cover for the other receptionists Viri and Ailene, when they are on lunch or taking a break.
Classes like Introduction to Agriculture Economics, Microeconomics, and Macroeconomics set the base business vocabulary and basic understanding of why the prices of the services were changing throughout the summer. I also used a lot of the excel skills from Fundamentals of Agriculture Economic Analysis in the office inputting jobs and creating spreadsheets for Troy. A class that really stood out to me was Legal and Social Environment of Business. The reason being is because during my employment at Yellow Jacket Oilfield Services LLC they were introduced to a new member of the Limited Liability Corporation or LLC, which I also learned from this class. This member influenced many changes in the company for example cut backs in certain departments and even laying people off as they have the right to do in Texas, as an employment at will state. Lets not forget the knowledge from English and Agriculture Communication classes I used to write this paper. Although I used the information from many classes there are still some I need to take to better understand the actions of my supervisor. This fall semester I will be enrolled in Ethics of Business and Managing People in Organizations, which will be helpful to relate what I have experienced this summer to the classroom. Another class that would be helpful to take would be a sales class. Even though I did not get to
During this course, I discovered an interest I had in the business field. Owning a company, advertising and marketing, selling procedures were things I enjoy retaining information about. Along with this
The one class that really opened up my eyes to see the world in a different point of view was Entrepreneurship and Creativity. I may have not gotten the best possible grade, but I will never forget the learning principles that inspired me to create and explore many different options. The course had a marketing pitch competition that has gotten me to think in an entrepreneurial mindset ever since. As my parking app pitch came close with the runners-up, I am still trying to improve and innovate from previous models.
I have spent three years at DePauw University learning Economics and Communication, and I believe my extensive background in taking classes in Financial and Managerial Accounting will be very useful for your accounting internship. I have also spent a summer as a financial advisor, and I believe those skills will transfer over and be an added benefit.
My internship placement is at Positive Living Niagara, which is non-for profit organization located in Downtown, St Catharines. The focus of this organization is to offer a band of innovative and proactive tactics to harm reduction, prevention and a person- centered focus on support and education for those at risk and affected by HIV, HCV and STBBIs in the region. The organization is comprised of 3 major departments, which are Support and Education, Street works, and Case Management. I work in the office while generally overseeing these departments every Friday from 9:00am – 5:00pm. My supervisor is the Executive Director of the organization and his name is Glen Walker. I have been given a main task that is to redesign the organization’s annual report. Along with this task I was given others such as succession planning, analyzing, and revising existing polices.
Since Accounting is so hands on I believe experience shadowing or working with other accountants would help me, because I would get to see how the accounting system works when everything isn’t in proper order or some financials are missing. I consider that experience invaluable because it teaches me what I can not learn in a classroom and helps expand my knowledge in that field
Every time I was introduced to a new concept in class, I was immediately able to utilize it when listening to a Deep Dish lecture or at a QUARTZ event. From the beginning of the semester it was clear that my internship and this course would work well together and enhance my understanding of what I learned in both settings.
The Internship is a film revolved around two businessmen who have hit the curb with their recent downfall in their previous company. Billy McMahon (played by Vaughn) finds a position as an intern at Google and signs his friend Nick Campbell (played by Wilson) up. Most of the movie is set at the Google headquarters, and the two businessmen are surrounded by youth (most of the age of around 21) and given instructions of the course by Mr. Roger Chetty (played by Aasif Mandvi). The interns are divided into groups, and whom, at the end of the course, only that group will be given full-time
I have learned so much in this class to prepare me for a successful college experience. There were some topics that caught my attention more than others. Such as, time and stress management, University resources, and critical thinking.
Prior to taking this class, I had very little knowledge on preparing taxes. Throughout the course thus far, I have been able to establish groundwork for building upon in the future. There are many different rules and situations that are treated differently in the tax world. I think I will definitely remember the basics in preparing a tax return, and hopefully some of the other situations such as dealing with a business and/or a hobby. Additionally, I will be able to build upon these ideas in my internship this spring.
It has been a while since I started at the internship and I am really glad I decided to work here. I think the experience in this area is a good preview of my career and future. I am learning some important skills and finding out some things about myself and the tough skin I will need in order to stay in the area of juvenile support.
During the Fall Semester of my senior year at Ohio University, I had the privilege to be an intern at the Athens County Common Pleas court with Judge McCarthy’s office. My main duties and responsibilities during this internship were to organize, pull and put away court files. I also assisted in court recording while the Judge was on the record in the courtroom. This internship also allowed me the opportunity to spend time and see other aspects of the criminal justice such as Municipal court, Juvenile court, Domestic court and the Adult Parole Authority. Throughout my time in this internship, I saw and experienced things that sparked my sociological thinking. This specific court deals with a lot of drug related problems and as a result, they have had to develop methods for dealing with it. One such thing is the A.C.E (Athens country empowerment) diversion which is one of the rehabilitative methods the court has at its disposal. The other option the court uses is more punitive where they send people to jail or prison. The question that was always in the back of mind during this internship was if diversion programs or jail was a more effective tool at helping these individuals kick their abuse habits and reduce recidivism back into the court. Another aspect that I wanted to look at was if politics and funding play into the courts decisions to hand down a certain punishment. The last thing that I wanted to look at was if there were aspects of social learning within family’s that
