Internships

GBM was always on my radar since everyone seemed nice and it would allow me to gain real world experience. It took me a while before I applied, but now that I’m here, I’m loving it full heartedly! Something that has stood out to me is how constant feedback and check-ins are. Everyone will let you know how you are doing and ways in which you can improve.

The hiring process was really simple. I met some employees during my university’s ‘Meet the Firms’ event and was able to talk with them. A few emails later, I was able to land the interview.

I like that everyone is so willing to help and answer questions. If their door is open, they are extremely open to helping you with any issue. I’m able to talk with the other interns as well, which allowed us to become closer!

After interviewing with GBM I knew I wanted to pursue an internship, the calm and comfortable nature of the firm and welcoming environment felt like it would be the best place to learn and expand my accounting skills.

I did not realize how much I would learn in what felt like such a short amount of time. The experience has been educational but not overwhelming in the slightest. I’ve had time to explore topics and subjects that were interesting to me while still progressing and being an asset to the firm.

I really enjoy the friendly and helpful nature of GBM, whenever I have a question or problem there is always several people who are willing to help!

I chose to do an internship with GBM because of the welcoming environment and the amazing opportunities given for interns to learn and grow. Ever since my first interaction with the GBM staff, I have felt truly welcomed and have been able to learn so much from their continued guidance and knowledge.

The people—everyone at GBM continues to strive for the best for their clients and truly puts their all into their work. The GBM staff are a very supportive group, and throughout my time as an intern, I have always felt encouraged to ask questions, dive deeper into the accounting profession, and grow as an individual.

Thus far, the continuous opportunities to learn have stood out to me during my internship. At GBM, there is always a new opportunity to further develop my knowledge of the profession—from the Weekly Q&A Sessions to sitting in with the staff on returns, as well as the Lunch and Learns!

My hiring process was all I could have ever asked for as a first-time intern. As this was my first time going through a hiring process as an intern, I was very nervous going into it. However, from the first step, I felt welcomed, valued, and heard. I would like to say thank you to Crystal for keeping me informed every step of the way, and to Brad and Caroline for making my interview wonderful.

One thing I love about the GBM culture is the sense of community within the workspace. Working at GBM, you truly get the sense that everyone enjoys what they do and the people they work with.

My internship at GBM has beyond exceeded my expectations and has been nothing less than exceptional! I am so grateful for my time at GBM and could not imagine my first internship anywhere else. If you ever get the chance to join the GBM team, take the opportunity—you won’t regret it!
