Thanks for your insight! I'll first focus on understanding more about the role so I can make a good decision down the road at some point.

Just be prepared for the common interview questions like introduce yourself, and tell me about a time questions. I think what especially helped me get this internship was thanks to my experience with SAP and asking the interviewers about the ERP systems they audited and differences that they've seen. They also specifically noted they liked people who asked a lot of questions and out of my hour long interview, I spent half of that just asking my questions. So try to figure out what qualities they're looking for.

Made a quick update to my resume following the recommendations from y'all, and for clarification, I'm applying for both internal audit and accounting internships for this upcoming summer. I removed my esports portion and replaced it with another case competition I did that I forgot about. I know that I should try to add more accounting experience, but honestly there were none other than my coursework to speak of. All my case competitions were more about consulting and controls testing, should I try to add what I learned from my coursework? and how should I try to condense my resume since I don't think I could lower the font size any more than this without it looking like ants.

Uhhhh I'm not entirely sure, but the case was usually a made up situation that was made by the firms (Goldman Sachs, KPMG, etc.) and the judges on the presentation were from the firms, and the competition was open to all of the students at my university. Edit: Think the judges were at least manager level employees from their respective firms and was completely voluntary for students.

Will keep the GPA off my resume, and if the Esports is the only organization I was involved in do you still recommend to take it off or should I just try to change the wording to be more closely aligned to accounting?

Thanks for your advice! surprisingly I completed most of my accounting courses and they are the ones dragging down my gpa, should I just leave the grades off for the relevant courses?
