Introducing Elliott Davis

We’re Elliott Davis, a forward-thinking business services provider with an industry-leading workplace culture. Our nine offices — located in the fastest growing cities in the U.S. — are built on a foundation of inclusivity, collaboration, and collective growth. We believe when our employees can thrive in all facets of life, our work and impact is that much greater.

Why Choose Our Internship?

Joining Elliott Davis as an intern is an opportunity to set the stage for a career that evolves with you as you acquire new skills. We are dedicated to helping you define what career success means to you and providing you with the resources and opportunities to pave your own path - a path that aligns with your future goals. 

The EXPLORE Internship Program

Our EXPLORE internship program is an eight-week, summer internship experience built for rising juniors. The goal of EXPLORE is to provide you with a greater insight into what really separates audit and tax by offering a more practical, hands-on experience so that you can decide what works best for you. EXPLORE will give you the exposure to audit and tax tracks rather than selecting a single service line to commit to all summer. Students will spend focused time with our audit and tax teams learning about the process of each service line as well as career trajectories for each. Additionally, you will participate in engaging professional development seminars and contribute to ongoing community service projects, allowing you to cultivate unique and fulfilling experiences. At the end of the summer, you can receive an offer to come back the following summer for a second internship AND a sign-on internship bonus for returning.

Listed below are the requirements for EXPLORE Interns:

  • Must be enrolled in an accounting program (or related major)
  • Preference is for students to be a rising senior by the time the internship commences
  • Must have a GPA of 3.25 or greater
  • Must be legally eligible to work in the U.S. without sponsorship

WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN US

  • Approachable leaders (Learn from the top.)
  • A team-driven, collaborative environment. (Teamwork makes the dream work, as they say.)
  • Hands-on experience with real client work. (Our interns don’t just do busy work.)
  • Broad exposure to different industries and aspects of our business. (We’re a big enough firm for that.)
  • One-on-one attention focused on your growth. (We’re a small enough firm for that.)
