I had a great time working at Wendroff & Associates. I had the opportunity to work with extremely talented and professional accountants. I worked on a variety of tasks, including monthly accountings and preparing individual tax returns. In addition, I worked on other research projects. I gained a strong understanding of tax accounting. The environment was very friendly and everyone was willing to help.

Accountant Intern
June - August 2021 • Arlington County, VA
What I liked
The internship had very flexible hours and allowed me to do the things I needed to do outside of work so that I can manage working and study as a student.
What I wish was different
I wish I had more flexibility to do more variety of work outside of QBO and tax analysis, however it is a tax firm so that is to be expected.
Advice
Make sure you ask questions early, it can be daunting but they are very friendly and fair. I always had transparency with everyone I worked with and made alot of friends.

Accounting Intern
January - December 2020 • Arlington County, VA
What I liked
I like the variable projects I worked on and the on-job-training. I did monthly accounting tasks and individual returns. I helped with PPP applications. And everyone was so friendly and supportive. I like the open-door policy that you can ask anyone for help when you have problems on projects. I also like the paperless working environment. I did almost all projects on computers via various software. It's very efficient and organized.
What I wish was different
Having an internship during the COVID-19 pandemic was quite different. I only wish we could go back to the office and work together.
Advice
I would suggest asking as many questions as possible and always double checking your work before sending it to customers. This really benefits the growth of an intern to a business profession.
