1 Be unprepared

Before you start your internship, you should do some research on the company, the industry, and the role you will be performing. You should also review the basics of accounting principles, standards, and software that you will be using. This will help you understand the context, expectations, and goals of your work, and show your enthusiasm and initiative to your supervisor and colleagues. You don't want to waste time asking questions that you could have easily answered yourself, or make errors that could have been avoided with some preparation.
