At KPMG Short Hills office, the employees were so kind and helpful. The certain people who were willing to sit you down and explain every part of the job were my most memorable experiences.

Kpmg Audit Intern

June - August 2018 • San Francisco, CA

What I liked

The people I worked alongside were extremely helpful and encouraging. They answered all my questions regarding the specific tasks and in general about their own careers. I would love to work with that team again.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have been more proficient in my excel knowledge as I ended up using that resource a lot in my work. I think I could've been a lot more efficient had I had better training with it before hand.

Advice

I would say don't be afraid to ask questions or ask for feedback. During any internship or job you might feel as though you should enter knowing most of the stuff but the reality is that you will learn most of the information on the job. It is extremely for both the intern and the employer to encourage feedback for a more effective experience.
