MichaelSilver

Tax Intern

January - December 2020 • Skokie, IL

What I liked

MichaelSilver is a firm that prides itself on being people-centered and having everyone work as a team, and more importantly a family. I was greeted with a positive and vibrant environment, where everyone was wiling to help and share their experiences in the accounting profession (which was extremely useful to me as a Sophomore student.) I was able to gain a wide array of tax experience by working on a combination of Individual, Trust, Business, and other miscellaneous returns throughout my time at the firm. This experience has provided me invaluable tax knowledge and allowed me to grow as a professional, and I would highly recommend this to any student. The MichaelSilver team is also very understanding of school schedules, so don't be deterred!

What I wish was different

Advice

Going through this experience, I would advise incoming interns to continually ask questions (and not be afraid to do so!) Every client and task is going to be different or have some different moving parts - Asking questions is the only way to learn, and everyone at the firm is more than understanding and willing to help or guide you in the right direction!
