Corporate Accounting Intern at Worthington Industries in Columbus, Ohio

Job Description:

We are looking for an intern to join our team for the summer and fall season. Interns work side by side and support the accounting team by performing daily tasks such as journal entries, account reconciliations, audit substantive testing, monthly close procedures, financial reporting and more.

Upon graduation, each intern will present their project to their manager, mentors and members of senior leadership.

Interns will spend the remainder of their time receiving additional on-the-job experience and classroom learning. Classes will feature topics from general business etiquette to resume writing, interviewing and presenting with confidence.
