EisnerAmper

Resig Intern

June - July 2024 • New York, NY

What I liked

I liked the other interns I met and the experience I learned. Interning here was a great step forward to starting my accounting career. I also like how EA had numerous Yankee ticket give aways and catered in a couple lunches.

What I wish was different

I wish more employees were in the office.

Advice

Ask a lot of questions and never be afraid to reach out to someone on your team or etc.

PCS intern

June - July 2024 • Iselin, NJ

What I liked

The people and atmosphere. Everyone is very friendly and helps out around the office.

What I wish was different

Not much, the workload was a little light but that’s because the internship is between busy seasons so it’s out of our control.

Advice

Ask a lot of questions, it’s a good way to familiarize yourself with the work.

Tax-PCS

June 2024 • Iselin, NJ

What I liked

The first thing that stood out to me was the culture. Everyone here is extremely nice, professional, and welcoming. I have met many great people and all of them have fit this description. That is part of the culture they have built here at EisnerAmper.

What I wish was different

To no fault of EisnerAmper, the summertime is very slow, so the work we have done as interns isn't as much as I expected to see up to this point. Hopefully that increases as the summer goes on, however it seems from asking around that the summers get pretty slow in this profession.

Advice

The best piece of advice I could give is to ask questions. You are here to learn and the best way to learn is to ask questions. No one expects you to be a master at this as an intern.

Tax Intern

January - April 2024 • Metairie, LA

What I liked

I liked the growth opportunities EisnerAmper gave. You make of what you want in the internship by asking questions because you're going to get stumped countless of times once you start. Everyone is genuinely trying to help you learn, too. The work itself can be challenging, but that's what helps you learn more in the long run. 9/10 experience.

What I wish was different

The training involved for particularly the tax internship wasn't helpful as it should. To be fair, EA uses a lot of different software for particular things. Mostly, I was learning how to use the software along the way during my internship, but training hardly prepared me to know if I was doing things correct.

Advice

I would say to don't be scared to ask questions and always give effort to try and learn anything and everything. There is so much to learn with EA.

Tax Intern

January - April 2024 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

Overall, the internship was a great experience. I enjoyed having the opportunity to work on a variety of different tax returns with the full-time staff and to learn what busy season was like for tax accountants. As for the culture of the office, everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. Despite it being busy season, the staff members were easy to reach and happy to help whenever questions or issues arose.

What I wish was different

Advice

One piece of advice I would share for this internship is to attend all the events and talk to as many people as possible. You will be working with a lot of different people throughout the internship and getting to know them early on makes for a great experience.

Tax Intern

January 2023 • Lafayette, LA

What I liked

Been with my office for roughly a year and four months, so I've gotten to know my coworkers and the company well. Everyone is helpful and genuine, if you have a question they will find the time to help you. During my internship I was given actual tax returns to do, which is something that I appreciated. There is much to gain with an internship here, ranging from technical know-how to developing analytical skills. You will learn both on the job and by going to some of their training sessions.

What I wish was different

Advice

When you start the internship you will probably feel overwhelmed. Know that it is not the job, it is just a new experience. Give it some time and you will improve and feel more comfortable.

Accounting Intern

January - April 2024 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I really like working with International Tax team. Everyone was open to share their experience and teach whatever we found difficult. They made it very easy and welcoming environment especially for newcomers like me.

What I wish was different

Being a part-time intern, I wish I would have been informed about busy workdays of the week. I scheduled my classes for Tuesday and Thursday, while most of the events at the firm happened on those days.

PCS Intern

January - April 2024 • West Palm Beach, FL

What I liked

I liked being able to ask questions and learn the procedures of filing different returns. The West Palm Beach office is a collaborative team which I feel is important when assigned work to do because it gave me comfortability in asking questions and learning how to become better at preparing returns.

What I wish was different

I wish I was able to attend the Florida intern event where they made pizzas. I sadly was not able to attend because I had class that day. I also wish this internship had more exposure to other aspiring accountants in West Palm Beach since I was the only intern assigned to this office.

Advice

Being in person helps in learning the procedures from co-workers since they can visually see your willingness to learn and will make it easier for you to understand.

Tax Intern

January 2024 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I like the people and the culture here. Very friendly and people are willing to offer help. There are clearly no issues of communications during the experience. The culture is set to embrace. You can have the chance to talk to the upper management freely when you walk by their desk.

What I wish was different

I wish the internship can be longer so that I get to put more of the knowledge I have gained into more detail live practices.

Advice

Don't be afraid to ask questions. Ask a ton of questions.

Audit Intern

January - March 2024 • Philadelphia, PA

What I liked

I liked experiencing the Office culture. Everyone that I worked with was beyond patient and helpful as I have little to no experience with audit. They set you up for success from arrival with multiple people you can reach out to for help. You are hands on doing client work with your teams.

What I wish was different

Advice

Be prepared to learn. You are expected to know nothing, and everyone is prepared to teach you.

Human Resources Intern

April 2019 • Baton Rouge, LA

What I liked

This internship allowed me to see a realistic preview of what it was like to work in HR (especially recruiting)! I learned so much during my time and was so empowered to be heard, have my own ideas, and always did meaningful work. I've loved my internship and have been working at P&N for over a year now!

What I wish was different

Advice

The piece of advice I would share is not to feel like you are an intern and always share your ideas! I was timid at first, thinking I was only there to learn and observe, but my supervisor told me I was hired for my thoughts and opinions and they always wanted to hear what I had to say. I felt so appreciated throughout the internship!

Tax (PCS) Intern

June - August 2023 • Miami, FL

What I liked

Overall, everyone is welcoming and humble at Eisner Amper. I am glad that I have been a part of such an awesome team. I learned and gained experience in the tax industry from professionals across many offices in Florida. All of the seniors and partners have exceptional experiences and insights to share. Virtual events across US and India have been amazing and insightful. Broad networking and great platforms!

What I wish was different

Advice

It is definitely worth it to be a part of such a great team, grasp the opportunity while you can!

Audit Intern

June - August 2023 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

All the amazing people! Everyone I have met has been so welcoming and supportive throughout the entire internship. The company-wide culture that EA promotes, and implements is amazing and is evident in the work environment. You are always encouraged to ask questions and explore all desired fields of accounting. Besides the amazing people, the experience and knowledge gained from this internship had been enormous. The auditing staff provided us with a space to learn and challenged us to explore all aspects of auditing fundamentals through a real-world, hands-on approach. Something unique to the EA internship is the vast diversity in the client work you get to be a part of. Every day is filled with hands-on experience that is unique and client focused. This internship has given me the skills and confidence to foster a career in public accounting. I recommend this internship to anyone wanting to gain experience working at a firm that prioritizes its employees. In the short time I interned, the La Jolla office became like a family to me and created a safe learning space.

What I wish was different

The only aspect of the internship that I would change is the length of the internship. It was only eight weeks from beginning to end, making it feel like you were leaving right as you got the hang of it. I wish we would've had the opportunity to extend our internship as it would have given us a better opportunity to showcase our new skills and knowledge.

Advice

Come in with an open mind and be ready to learn everything you need to know. I came in without prior experience and was always prepared for client work. Your team will train you on all you have to know. It will be a learning curve so remember to take notes, be patient with yourself, and appreciate all the support you receive.

Audit Intern

June - August 2023 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

I enjoyed my time here because of numerous reasons, but the one that I loved the most was that everyone is so nice and welcoming. We also had the chance to work with interns in different offices, which was also fun because I got to meet people that I would have never had the chance to. In terms of the workload, it was fun and interesting to learn more about the company and what they do. It was nice having a staff be assigned as our buddy, as they were super helpful with the transition.

What I wish was different

I wish that the internship was a tad bit longer. I think that 8 weeks was a little too short, because in-between the trainings, assignments, and client work, there was not much time to learn and experience as much as we could have. It was doable, but it would have been nice if we had an extra 2 weeks or so.

Advice

Ask questions! Everyone was so nice so they never made me feel bad about asking all the questions I had. It helped me learn better.

Audit Intern

June - August 2023 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

I absolutely loved the amazing team that were so welcoming and kind to help whenever I had questions. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to go into the field on an Audit project, which I really enjoyed working so closely with the client and team and experience real world auditing. This internship was such a valuable experience because we were exposed to a handful of different tasks involved in audits, in addition to performing many accounting tasks for clients, which allowed us to expend our knowledge and abilities. While the knowledge I gained from this internship is definitely a highlight, the people here are the best part. I looked forward to coming into the office each day and working with an incredible group that genuinely want to see you succeed. The culture here is like becoming part of a family, and I never felt like I was coming into work because of how much I enjoyed my time here.

What I wish was different

I wish this internship was longer! The 8 weeks of this program flew by so fast that I wish we were given a couple extra weeks before wrapping up. I think interns would benefit with a longer program to take advantage of the time they have to continue strengthening their skills and helping the office on projects/ tasks.

Advice

If you are coming into this internship afraid that you won't know anything, or if you feel like you have imposter syndrome, that's ok! You aren't the only one, and you will soon find out that you will have all the resources available to you in order to succeed. And don't be afraid to ask questions! You are there to learn, so be like a sponge and apply what you are taught during your time as an intern. Also, if you do not have any work, take initiative and ask for some!

Tax Intern

June - August 2022 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

I felt very supported throughout the whole internship. It was highly encouraged that we ask questions and take advantage of our resources, so I felt very comfortable reaching out and asking for help/ clarification on things. I also liked how we got to do a lot of client work therefore we got experience with doing tasks that current staff are working on.

What I wish was different

I wish the internship would've been longer, we had a lot of trainings, and it would've been nice to work on more client work given so much training.

Advice

Ask questions and network with people! Everyone is willing to share about their experiences and offer guidance as long as you ask. The staff here are very knowledgeable and can offer a lot of help!

Keep an open mind and don't be afraid to ask questions!

What I liked

The culture in the office is amazing. Everyone is so nice and ready to help! As an intern, I was able to get to know all the different departments and service lines EA has to offer. They make it a personal experience assigning you employees that will check in with you as you go about your time there.

Summer Tax Intern

June - August 2023 • La Jolla, CA

What I liked

I thoroughly enjoyed my time as an intern at EisnerAmper! The in-depth training process helped in preparing myself to work in this role. I was able to gather technical knowledge on how to prepare complex tax returns that is not seen in a classroom. Working with EisnerAmper also allowed me to work on a team of interns from multiple offices across the nation. It was an intriguing aspect as I got to make close colleagues here in La Jolla, but also in New York and New Jersey. With this team, we were able to build on more skills through our group presentation to Partners of the firm.

What I wish was different

One thing I wish had been different was the timeline of the internship. I would have liked to have begun client work a little earlier in the internship.

Advice

A piece of advice I would share is to keep trying! Mistakes and errors happen while on the job, but learning to adapt and correct the errors is the part where growth through this experience truly occurs.
