Office of the New York State Comptroller

Business Analyst Intern

June - August 2020 • Albany, NY

What I liked

A new experience in business analysis. I met many students from different backgrounds and I learned a lot about state government.

What I wish was different

I wish it was in person. Due to Covid-19, the internship was remote.

Advice

Don't be scared to take risks and ask questions.

May - August 2018 • Albany, NY

What I liked

The overall experience and professional development opportunity.

What I wish was different

Less of an academic component .

Finance and Administration

May - August 2018 • Albany, NY

What I liked

I loved getting to know the other interns. We weren’t even seen as interns, but employees. We had to do the same amount of work as anyone there. I enjoyed learning the new thing we did.

What I wish was different

I wish I had asked for more work.

Advice

If you get an experience like this do it. Don’t let it go pass you. Get to know the other interns. Become a family not just a group of stranger.
