Johnson Lambert is currently seeking Tax Interns who are focused on Accounting and planning to achieve the CPA designation. We pride ourselves in creating the opportunity for interns to work with clients and experience firsthand what being an audit or tax professional at a mid-size firm looks like.


At Johnson Lambert, we relentlessly strive to advocate for our clients and employees and inspire an environment that embodies agility, respect, and trust. As an intern with JL, you can expect the following: 


Learning & Networking


You will have the ability to learn from some of the best leaders in the industry. You will earn real world experience by working directly with clients and receiving structured feedback from managers. 


You will also receive training on the latest technology that is being used in Public Accounting. Your internship will include two weeks of training & development to ensure that you are prepared for your first client engagement. We will provide you with additional training throughout the program to ensure that you build on both the soft skills & technical skills needed to be successful. 


Qualifications & Selection Process


We look for candidates who are actively pursuing a career in Public Accounting who have declared a major in Accounting and are on their way to CPA eligibility. We look for students who are actively engaged in organizations and are looking for a firm that will help them build their leadership and technical job skills. 


We value your time and have built the selection process to reflect that. Our process is simple; you will begin the selection process with an application that is individually reviewed by our Recruiting team and a phone interview to best understand your specific areas of interest. The next step is an interview with the practice area  and office that most closely aligns with your career goals. After that, decisions will be made, and the Recruiting team will be back in touch. We value our candidates and want to ensure a process that directly reflects what you can expect as a Johnson Lambert employee. That means, you have an entire HR team to support you through your candidacy and help you find a position that will allow you to take your career to the next level. 


Equity note: Research suggests that women and Black, Indigenous, and other persons of color are less likely than men or White job seekers to apply for positions unless they are confident they meet 100% of the qualifications. We strongly encourage interested individuals to apply, and allow us to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and abilities you demonstrate, using an internal equity lens.


Johnson Lambert prides itself for the hands-on approach and relationships we build with future employees, employees, and clients. We believe each application is the potential for a future relationship with JL. Therefore, a member of our HR team personally reviews all applications submitted.
