Your internship experience will help you understand how financial concepts and principles apply in a practical setting, and you will gain insights into the workings of the finance industry.

However, there are also some differences between the two. Accounting internships typically focus on the recording and reporting of financial transactions, as well as auditing and tax preparation. Accounting interns may be involved in tasks such as bookkeeping, financial statement preparation, and audit support. Finance internships, on the other hand, often focus on financial analysis, investment research, and risk management.
