Elder Hanson & Company, Ltd.

Administrative Assistant

November 2019 • Naperville, IL

What I liked

The company has helped me achieve more growth than any other previous job. There's constant opportunity to learn new roles within the firm as the company provides multiple resources such as paid-by-employer courses, seminars, trainings, etc. Workloads are manageable and management is great about checking-in to make sure you're not feeling overwhelmed and offer to help -and they do help- where needed which is can be rare. The firm has monthly Happy Hour events which take up the last hour of a workday to spend having fun!

What I wish was different

Nothing comes to mind which speaks for itself.

Advice

Apply yourself and be open to learning new things. It will take you far!

Tax Intern

February 2021 - April 2022 • Naperville, IL

What I liked

The work environment was professional as well as welcoming and the coworkers were really nice and very helpful. You get to learn a lot about tax and the workload was not overwhelming. The work schedule is also very flexible to give you time for homework and classes.

What I wish was different

There is not much that could be improved. This position is the perfect intro into the tax side of accounting.

Advice

If you apply yourself this position will be more rewarding than just pay and you will learn much more than what the tax classes at university teach you.

Accounting and Tax Associate

November 2021 • Naperville, IL

What I liked

The interview process went smoothly and the firm was very welcoming! I started interning during my senior year of college and they spent a lot of time and resources getting me trained for my first tax season. I had a busy class schedule but they were willing to work with me around it.

What I wish was different

Advice

There's nothing better than getting real world, hand's on experience within your major, and I know that everything I've learned with Elder Hanson & Company helped me in school, and will continue to further my career in accounting!
