Internship
In a World Economic Forum’s report on
employment opportunities for the future, Accounting
is identified as one of the fields that would generate
stable employment. However, it also highlights that
the traditional accounting roles would become
redundant, and new accounting jobs that blend in
technology and consulting would be the norm. 
Hence, relying on the grades that you get in
university would not be enough to leverage the
opportunities opening up in this field. Practical
knowledge with hands-on industry experience will
help you get ahead of the competition and land a
professional opportunity that sets you on the path of
success.
An accounting internship is one of the best ways of bridging your education with real-time
industry exposure. Through this avenue, you can get an understanding of how the accounting
industry works and is extremely beneficial in building your profile.
With a plethora of accounting internships on offer, you need to ascertain which one of them
would enhance your strengths and provide better opportunities.
Internships provide opportunities to work in different areas of accounting. A few of the
accounting areas that you can focus on as part of an accounting internship in line with the
current and future demands are – Book Keeping, Accounts Payable & Receivable, Payroll,
