What I did: I completed various different types of tax returns for individuals, partnerships and corporations. I also completed tax research and gained experience in a variety of industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, real estate and construction. What I liked: I loved being able to work on complex returns that really challenged my skillset. I took a lot of pride in my work and over the past few months, have grown tremendously as a professional. There is a strong sense of community at CLA, and because of this, I was able to establish many new friendships and connections. I feel much more confident in myself and I have been able to apply my new skills in many of my classes. Overall, I really enjoyed the work I did and the people I connected with. Future Dream Job: My dream job is being a CPA (Certified Public Accountant).
What I did: I was in the marketing department and was in charge of the social media content for some of the projects. I developed a marketing plan for the Rapid Genome Testing Panel. I also researched information about competitors, looked at ways to increase engagement on social media platforms, and viewed other advertising aspects throughout the company. What I liked: I think developing the social media content was one of my favorite things to do throughout my internship. I learned a lot about drafting social media posts and finding the correct images to go with the posts. I also enjoyed creating a marketing plan for the Rapid Genome Testing Panel. I got to experience firsthand marketing tactics when promoting a real product/service. I learned a lot on strategy and I also was able to provide them with some new strategies I learned in school. Future Dream Job: My dream job is director of marketing for a business I enjoy working for.
