About Our Program

The Comptroller of the Treasury's Audit Internship Program is a 10-week paid educational and experiential learning opportunity offering undergraduate students a chance to witness and participate in the audit operations of the office. Interns will spend the summer building skills through their assignment to an active audit, audit-specific training, and professional development training. Interns will also have opportunities to build relationships with each other through shared experiences, such as touring the State Capitol and the Tennessee State Museum.

Intern responsibilities may include learning to examine and review records, reports, financial statements, and management practices for local government entities and other organizations receiving public funds. Interns may have the opportunity to evaluate the following: fairness of financial statement presentation; the adequacy of internal controls; the efficiency and effectiveness of an entity's operations and systems; and compliance with laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements.

This Local Government Audit internship opportunity will be based out of the Mideast Tennessee Region. Depending on the audit assignment, interns may have the opportunity for limited travel to counties across the Mideast Tennessee Region during the summer.

Successful interns are those who are adaptable, able to think critically, work well both individually and as part of a team, and are willing to learn and grow. Candidates should exhibit interpersonal and communication skills to communicate tactfully with auditees, coworkers, and others. Interns are expected to apply their classroom accounting knowledge to meaningful audit work.
