Who we are

Clark Nuber is a distinguished public accounting and consulting firm with over 70 years of experience serving clients in the Pacific Northwest and globally. Boasting a team of over 300 skilled professionals, the firm offers a breadth of world-class expertise in financial health, management, and growth strategies. We’re passionate about our profession, enjoy life, and support the communities in which we live and work.

What you’ll do

As an Audit intern at Clark Nuber, you'll dive into the world of financial auditing, gaining hands-on experience with professional standards of audit, review, and compilation engagements. Expect to apply key auditing techniques like vouching, tracing, reconciling to affirm the accuracy of client employee benefit plans, and gain exposure to financial statement audits. You'll contribute to engagement planning, work with advanced technology tools for documentation, and play a role in the finalization of engagements to meet deadlines. Prepare to enhance your skills and understanding in a dynamic, real-world setting.

What we’re looking for

• Planning to pursue the CPA license upon graduation. Accounting majors are preferred, although other majors will be considered.

• Strong communication skills, both written and oral; diversity of activities and interests; the desire to be continually challenged; and the ability to think creatively to bring solutions to clients.

• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for employment-based sponsorship now or in the future. Clark Nuber will not consider candidates for this position who require sponsorship for employment visa status now or in the future (e.g., H1-B status). In addition, we are unable to support the OPT Training Visa, or any other Visa that will eventually require sponsorship.

Embark on a transformative internship journey at Clark Nuber, where you'll gain invaluable insights through firsthand experiences such as shadowing shareholders and associates to witness the nuances of audit expertise in action. Forge connections as you're paired with a Talent Advisor—a guide and confidant to help navigate your path. Benefit from layered mentorship that supports your professional growth at every turn. Embrace the opportunity to engage with our clientele directly during client visits, solidifying your understanding of the real-world application of audit services. This is more than an internship; it's a window into your future career, filled with learning and networking opportunities at every level.

Studies have shown that underrepresented groups are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they can perform every job description task. We are most interested in finding the best candidate for the job, and that candidate may come from a less traditional background. We may consider an equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education, and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about your background and skill set for the role.
