Intern Reviews
- “I never felt stressed being a part-time worker and a full-time student. The balance was great, and my advisors were always so understanding if I needed a day for school. What I really found extremely helpful is the trainings this office holds, and I have learned a lot from having specific training days on certain topics.”
- “As interns, you are only expected to work the hours when you are able to work. Even though it was the busy season, no one ever pressured me to work long hours, I was also told to put school first. If I need to take my scheduled day off for school or any reason, it was always approved immediately.”
- “Everyone in the office was very welcoming and helpful. This was the first time that I was doing auditing, and the office was small, so there wasn't a lot of room to hide if I made an error. However, each person who I worked with never failed to walk me through each process and answer any questions that I might have had. There was never a time when I felt like I couldn't reach out to someone for help. Each person, all the way up to the partners, was always willing to answer a question or steer me in the right direction.”
- “Everyone is extremely approachable and friendly. It feels like a nurturing environment; there is no competitive or cutthroat air. I feel that the culture at PKF OD allows me to learn and become more comfortable and useful.”
Getting Hired Here
- “The interview process for me was honestly fun. I felt that I was making connections with the staff immediately just through over the phone, which was comforting.”
- “The interviews were always professional while also remaining very friendly and open. Most of the questions were them trying to gauge where I was at as a student and picking my brain to hear about important takeaways from my school experience.”
- “The interview went very well! The person who did my interview was very interactive and always had a positive response. The interview kept me on my toes, and [I felt] lucky to be going through this process. I loved how they were referring to my resume and asking about my past experience but also what to prepare for when I join them.”
- “I was very satisfied with the hiring process. The interviewers were friendly and asked very important questions. The response time was also great. They will let you know as soon as possible if you will have a second interview or an offer is being sent.”
