The intern will report to the Director of International Finance, however in order to give a well-rounded exposure to the whole department and provide an opportunity for a challenge, we believe that the intern may be asked to help in any of the aforementioned areas based on our needs at a particular time.

The intern will be given an attainable and measurable goal and timeline within which to meet that goal.  Weekly formal or informal performance evaluation discussions will be held with the intern’s direct supervisor/manager. During these discussions, the intern will be further guided towards achieving both short-term and long-term goals of the assigned project.

The anticipated outcome of this project(s) will be that the liability and related expense will be properly stated in the financial statements of the company.   Status reports will be generated periodically to explain the unresolved issues in progress and the balances which have been resolved.
