Throughout the entire experience, the most rewarding part of my internship was meeting the goals I had set for myself and making strong relationships with the people at Pardo\u2019s. By the end of my internship, my goal was to become more knowledgeable in the finance\/accounting field. I have achieved this and now have a deeper understanding of the behind-the-scenes within an accounting firm. I am very fortunate to have built a relationship with the wonderful people at the firm, who made this new and exciting experience run smoothly.<\/p>\n<p>As for the most challenging part of this whole experience, I would say asking for help in certain situations was the hardest. I tried my best to complete tasks on my own without needing any assistance, thinking it showed signs of a good intern without needing to bother them. Toward the last few weeks of this experience, I quickly realized that not asking questions was my biggest mistake, and as an intern, you are there to learn and not have everything all figured out. Overall, I am incredibly grateful for this experience. I had the opportunity to meet great people and learn more about the field I hope to pursue a career in.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Damaris Acomata<\/p>\n<p>Finance, 2027<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This summer, I was fortunate enough to have completed my internship at Pardo &amp; Associates CPA\u2019s.
