Summer and/or Winter Externship Program
The Externship Program is designed for students in their sophomore or junior year of college who are majoring in Accounting. The externship is a one day program that takes place over winter and/or summer break. It provides students with an introduction to public accounting at Rothstein Kass through a variety of events, such as shadowing a principal, team building activities, a panel discussion, and networking opportunities. Our Externship Program is an ideal opportunity for students who are not able to commit to a full-time internship during the winter.
Winter Internship Program
The Winter Internship Program is a full-time (40-55 hours per week) paid internship in public accounting. The internship, which runs from January through March, is available to junior-year college students majoring in Accounting. Students working toward their master degree in Accounting are also welcome to participate. Interns work on multiple audit engagements as well as some initial tax preparation, working very closely with staff, senior and manager level team members.
Summer Internship Program
The Summer Internship Program is a ten-week internship for accounting majors about to enter their senior year of college. It is a paid internship that runs from June through August. Throughout the internship, we offer students the opportunity to work with and shadow several people throughout the firm. In some of our office locations we offer a rotational schedule through Audit Financial Services, Audit Commercial Services and Taxation. After completing two weeks in each practice area during a rotational schedule, students can choose where they want to spend their remaining four weeks.
