Your Role

We’re looking for a current student who wants to sharpen their skills in the accounting field. We’ll provide a flexible schedule and the real-world experience you’re looking for in an internship.  

Your main responsibilities will be to: 

  • Assist tax processes. This can include processing tax exempt certificates, filing state and local tax returns, and completing daily business tasks in our tax department.
  • Balance department projects. Outside of normal business, you’d also be involved in researching tax credits and incentives. 

Our anticipated start date for this position is Sept. 22, 2025, with the intent to continue part-time (15–20 hours/week) during the academic school year. 

This role does require working at our headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska, so we're currently considering students who live within a commuting distance. 

Must-Haves

  • An accounting major. During your studies, you’ve developed a love and passion for the field. 
  • Attention to detail. You have experience with reconciliation, and you’re comfortable with the responsibility of identifying discrepancies.
  • Multi-tasking abilities. You don’t get overwhelmed with multiple projects. You use your excellent organization skills to stick to deadlines.
  • Excel proficiency. You’re comfortable with Excel—and even more comfortable looking up shortcuts and functions (because there are way too many to remember offhand).

Nice-to-Haves

  • Eager to learn. You can’t wait to take on complex accounting entries and you enjoy working your way toward solutions.
  • A problem solver. Not every project is the same, but you understand how to navigate tasks and ask for help when needed.

Our Role

  • Ask you to make an impact. You're part of the team—that means you'll have real responsibilities. We want to hear what you think and see what you can do.
  • Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But even if you’re taking advantage of the opportunity to work remotely, we’ll provide you the tech you need to do your best work.
  • Develop your career. On top of working alongside some of the best professionals in the business and gaining real-world experience, we’ll give you extra opportunities like lunch-and-learns and access to curated libraries to round out your internship.
  • Support your wellbeing. You’ll have an entire team on your side to give advice and provide answers to your questions, plus more resources like topic-specific Slack channels and employee resource groups. In short, we have you covered.
