• Prepare individual income tax returns (Form 1040), including schedules for common situations such as wages, interest, dividends, capital gains, and self-employment income.

• Prepare extension requests
• Assist with administrative tasks and duties as needed

What You Will Gain

• Hands-on experience with professional tax software and the technology and workflow systems used in public accounting.
• Exposure to a variety of real-world tax situations, giving you an opportunity to apply what you've learned in the classroom to actual client work.
• Training and mentorship from experienced tax professionals who are invested in developing the next generation of accounting professionals.
• A better understanding of public accounting and what a career in the profession can look like after graduation.
• The opportunity to build relationships with experienced professionals.
• Potential for an extended internship or full-time opportunity based on performance, interest, and business needs.

Details

This is a seasonal, paid, part-time internship aligned with the individual income tax filing season.

We understand that our interns are students first. Interns typically work approximately 20–24 hours per week, allowing them to gain meaningful professional experience while continuing to prioritize their college coursework. We offer flexibility around class schedules, exams, and other academic commitments.

Specific internship dates and schedules will be discussed during the interview process.

Strong-performing interns may have the opportunity to extend their internship beyond the tax busy season, providing additional experience and continued exposure to the firm. Extended internship opportunities are not guaranteed and are based on the firm's staffing needs, the volume and type of work available after busy season, and the intern's performance and interest in continuing with Rudler.
