• Draft technical memos, research updates, and documentation related to financial reporting standards
• Collaborate on client projects spanning multiple industries and accounting areas
• Participate in structured “expeditions” through EY’s 360 Careers program, which simulate real consulting engagements

• Apply technical knowledge while balancing business risk and client expectations

This isn’t just an internship—it’s a career simulation with real accountability, mentorship, and outcome-driven learning.
