Fall 2022 Internship Experience

Friday marked my last day as an intern at Goldman Sachs. My Fall internship was an extension to the summer internship and overall, the period at the firm was an amazing experience. Goldman Sachs is an American multinational investment bank and financial services company headquartered in New York City. The firm provides a wide range of financial services to a diversified client base that includes governments, corporations, financial institutions, and individuals.

“The greatest asset of a company is it’s people”, After being a part of the firm for 5 months I can proudly say that Goldman Sachs has a rich vibrant culture and strongly invests in the development of its people. During my period in the firm, I was interning with the Internal Audit Domain where I learned more about Risks, Controls, Cybersecurity and Audit Methodology as a whole. There were a ton of networking events which helped me gain insights from professionals, other interns across various domains in the firm. The training's/ workshops made it helpful to dwell into the domain and gave a better understanding of the various processes performed as a part of requirements. The experience was great with full of learning not only in the professional domain but also filled with diverse career and development lessons.

I really appreciate all the support given by my managers Richard Ochoa and James Dugan. The learning and the entire experience was even more awesome under your guidance. I would also like to thank my mentor Sudhindra Devarakonda for always supporting, guiding, and making this experience even more amazing, it really wouldn’t have been possible without you people.

Lastly, I would like to thank professor Mark Thouin, Professor Gaurav Shekar and The University of Texas at Dallas for the guidance, support and offering of a well-designed flexible course curriculum which helped me in the transition to a professional.
