Each year, FZA welcomes one or more college students for a comprehensive internship program with our firm.  These individuals participate in a variety of real world accounting experiences alongside our professional staff.

Unlike traditional programs, our intent is to provide our interns immediate exposure to client-related work and get a real feel for what busy season in public accounting is all about.  Therefore, our interns come on board with many of the same responsibilities as our full-time, first year staff.  As a result, our interns have the comprehensive knowledge and understanding needed in order to make a well informed decision about which career path is best for them.

An internship with FZA is a great way to learn business skills, build your professional network, and obtain real world experience before, or immediately after graduation.  It could even lead to a full-time job.
