<p>I have a summer internship right now and I'm wondering how good it is on paper? I work somewhat as an accounting clerk/intern for a very small accounting research firm. The firm's president is Jack C (cant spell his last name its Polish or something) he has a high rated very popular accounting blog and is very well known across the country. His client base is pushing 1000 subscribers to his monthly papers he sends out. Were based in Baltimore and the firm itself is a no name but Jack is very well known. Day to day I enter data off of 10-K's, 20-F's and so, and research pensions and stock options for companies. Most of my work isnt that intense but the it stacks up, doing backfills for new companies and such. Anyway I was wondering if anyone can tell me how good this internship might look on paper because I'm thinking of trying to get a different one for next summer, but who knows.</p>
<p>That's amazing- don't know how old you are, but internships (provided that they are in a field that you have demonstrated a passion for) almost always look good. The only instance where you only do menial clerical work/and don't learn anything- the research is impressive. I worked at a law firm, and colleges loved that I did legal research and played a hand in helping the attorneys</p>
<p>Hey I'm 19 a rising sophmore at Towson University in baltimore majoring in accounting, so you think this looks good then well thats reassuring, I just really had no clue what quality my internship was. Thanks. O by the way if you dont know what Towson University is, its the second largest University in Maryland behind UMD and has a great business and accounting program. Anyway any other feedback would be great.</p>
<p>I think your internship looks pretty good. Practically any position, no matter how boring, can be worded to look fantastic on a resume. Even if you worked as a server in a restaurant, you can still say something like "interacted with customers to provide quality service and used time management to promptly fill orders."</p>
