During my internship, I assisted senior accountants with clients' bookkeeping, prepared tax returns, and conducted financial audits. This experience not only strengthened my technical skills but also enhanced my ability to solve complex problems and work collaboratively in a team environment.
One of my greatest strengths is my attention to detail. I consistently ensure accuracy in my work and have a strong sense of professional ethics, which is vital in the field of accounting. I am also a quick learner and embrace new challenges as opportunities for growth.
