I currently work as an accounting intern at Summit State Bank in Santa Rosa. One of the great things about my position is that it’s a small local bank so I get to see a very wide range of things and get a good idea of how a bank is run. I work for the controller and CFO of the bank so I really get to do a wide range of things. I work a lot on internal controls, verifying account balances at month ends to make sure there are no areas. We are just completing our year-end filings, so I have been heavily involved in that process. Some of my tasks have included helping with the auditors pulling support as well as getting to do small parts of the 10k report. One of the things that I really enjoy about my internship is that I really get to put to use the concepts that I learn in the classroom. My mentors at work really give me a lot of room to figure things out on my own and the guidance I need when I have questions. For me I find it really interesting working at a bank during the financial crisis and seeing some of the major differences between a larger bank and a local bank.
