Throughout my 10-week internship, I completed 12+ projects in support of this Fortune 500 company’s accounting operations. These projects included reporting timely and accurate information about customer contract renewals and revenue data, which were essential in the organization’s financial decision-making. Using Microsoft Excel, I also entered and organized contractual data from scanned documents to facilitate the company’s transition to a paperless environment. I enjoyed gaining exposure to a corporate environment while in this role and had the opportunity to participate in corporate-sponsored community service activities, educational forums, and professional development workshops. I learned the importance of effective communication and time management within a team setting. As a capstone project, I compiled a presentation that summarized my learning experience throughout the internship, and presented it to my manager, my mentor, and our senior leadership.
