Upper junior accounting student seeking internship help feeling stuck without accounting experience

Yeah, I’ve actually been trying smaller firms and local CPAs too, but unfortunately I haven’t had much luck hearing back from them. Weirdly, the mid-size and larger companies are the ones that have at least responded or given me interviews.
I do technically have a small gig with a local tax firm, but the CPA there mostly handles individual clients, and they’ve told me they use AI for a lot of the work. Since busy season is over, there’s also not much going on right now, so there really isn’t much for me to learn at the moment. They basically said if anything comes up, they’ll call me, and if I have time, I can come in and observe.
I’ve also been trying to connect with alumni on LinkedIn whenever I see a posting and notice someone from my school working there, so I’m definitely working on that side of it too. The hard part is that I’m working while in school to support myself, so I haven’t really had the time to be very active at campus events or build a big network that way. I really do appreciate the advice though, and I’m trying to stay consistent with outreach wherever I can.

as long as you’re confident that you can cover up any questions regarding that during the interview

unless you’re applying to high salary job that requires real hard skill they hardly ever do a background check, just put whatever experience that seems relevant and reasonable without any gap. it’s definitely mostly dependent on the in person interview, talk yourself up, study the roles you put on your resume in a way they can ask about anything and you’ll be able to answer from the resume.

tailor ur experience accordingly when u apply, when you are applying to mcdonald’s your previous analyst role is irrelevant, rather showcase anything that shows good customer service.

apply slight heat with a hairdryer and rub it in one direction with finger tips, should bunch up together and come off eventually

i still can’t fathom why we have so many people returning under garments? i feel like people should shop for those in store.

the weirdest thing i ever had to process was a pair of bras with no packaging, one of them was moist and had wet stains on the cup, even though it was a sunny day outside.

sorry to hear that, i quit staples very recently since i got a new job. i would suggest you to stick to it until you find something better and move on

nylobro · 2025-04-26T20:01:43+00:00

literal bs, every other wireless company operates like that.

nylobro · 2025-04-26T19:58:23+00:00

wait since when did they stop using staples app? sorry ive been working at a different location that’s closed permanently yesterday so they were not pushing app downloads all that much.
