Welcome Jaron Vanderhoff Continuing our intern introductions from last week, today we welcome Jaron, who is joining our Accounting Team as an intern! Jaron is enthusiastic about learning more about Merrill and building new relationships. When asked, "What are you currently excited about joining the team with Merrill Manufacturing as an intern this summer?" Jaron said, "I’m excited to learn more about Merrill and build new relationships throughout the company." #Internship2024 #WelcomeJaron #MerrillManufacturing #AccountingIntern #NewRelationships

The lesson I learned this week is that execution determines whether you’ll achieve your projected ROI. I was introduced to the collaboration that Greystar prioritizes to ensure deals are followed through to the end. This involves continually moving the project along with input from property managers to regional leaders, ensuring goals of successful asset management are understood, even when your job is to source and evaluate deals. I learned that an introduction to underwriting involves determining the potential a product can have in a market. This includes asking the initial question: “What does that piece of land and its surrounding areas offer to escalate lease-up potential and essentially improve the quality of life while also providing a return for shareholders?” I visited the property below to have a visual of the lessons learned this week. As it was a case study I did back in December of last year. #internship #realestate

Happy National Intern Day! Meet our intern at Legacy Franchise Concepts, Bauer Gucky, he is a rising junior at The University of Georgia - Terry College of Business majoring in Finance. We had Bauer answer some questions about his experience as a Finance Intern: 1. What has been your favorite part of interning at LFC?  My favorite part about interning at LFC is the people. I find myself surrounded by incredibly bright, humorous, and kind-hearted individuals. Their guidance has extended beyond the realms of finance and accounting, imparting invaluable life lessons that I will cherish forever. I am very happy with the relationships I have built. 2. What projects have you gotten to work on during your internship? What skills did you gain from it?  During my time at LFC, I got to work on two projects. The first was a competitor analysis for SweatHouz while the other was an introduction to a field our CEO, Jamie, was thinking of investing in. These projects proved to be invaluable learning experiences for me. Firstly, I gained a comprehensive understanding of the rationale behind companies' pricing decisions and how they position themselves amidst competitors. Secondly, I learned what investors look at when thinking about investing in certain companies, from broad aspects all the way down to the very detailed elements. Lastly, I strengthened my presentation skills. After presenting a few times in front of the office, I got comfortable presenting in front of a large crowd. Overall, I enjoyed doing these projects and I learned a lot of valuable skills. 3. What's a piece of advice you would give to future interns? Dear future intern, As you embark on your journey, I want to share a valuable lesson I've learned during my time here: respect. Respect others and they will respect you. By treating others with respect, you create a positive environment where respect is reciprocated. Here, everyone values each other's contributions, and there is a culture of active listening and mutual learning, regardless of one's position. Embrace this principle, and you'll undoubtedly thrive in this supportive and collaborative workplace. We are so thankful for our intern and all that he did this summer. We will miss his crazy basketball takes, his choice in food, and who he thinks is going to win the next national title. He truly was an asset for LFC this summer. Crush it at UGA, Bauer! #NationalInternDay #Intern #Internship #LifeAtLFC

It’s official! This Fall, I will be joining Project Destined for their Signature Commercial Real Estate Internship Program!

This is an incredible opportunity that will allow me to apply what I have learned in investment strategies for acquisitions, development and retail properties and to keep executing my skills in financial modeling, developing pro-formas, market research, economic feasibility, analysis of cap rate, IRR, DCR and more

So many opportunities to grow in a caring and innovative culture.

That stereotypical image of working on Wall Street? I lived it. ⭐️ Cecily McCormack ‘24 🏠 Rutland, VT 📓 Business Administration: Finance 💼 Sales and Trading Fixed Income Intern at Cantor Fitzgerald Most people probably wouldn't opt to spend their winter break working away from home. But when the opportunity to spend the month in NYC at one of the top financial firms in the world popped up, I said yes. Absolutely, yes. And I've already learned SO much here. All these things I knew from UNH, I now get to apply to the real world. My internship was really hands-on. Essentially, I learned how salesman and traders go about selling and trading bonds. It's the perfect combination of both personable and analytical skills. Matching clients with the right assets is like a puzzle – and I love putting all the pieces together. I'm so thankful Paul's internship opportunity fund awarded me $2,500 to take this opportunity. Between NYC rent, commuting, and food, I didn't have to dip into my savings to be here. Which is just amazing. Nobody in my family has connections to the finance world, so I got this opportunity through sheer determination. I've been messaging alums and finance professionals on LinkedIn for years - probably hundreds of people at this point! Most people don't respond, but a managing director at Cantor Fitzgerald did. He gave me book recommendations and SO much advice. And then, in the fall he invited me to NYC for some informal networking/interviewing. (I got to chat/interview with the COO!) That led to this. I've had so much support on this journey from my professors. They're always willing to go the extra mile to help. Russ Miles even showed me how the subway system worked! I still check in with him weekly. Winter internships offer so much more one-on-one attention and real work. If you get the opportunity, just do it. I've fallen in love with this work and this city. You'll definitely find me in NYC after graduation. #PaulPride

Reminder for Students: If you are looking for a summer internship, try a restaurant. Seriously. I’ve interned at legal offices, asset managers and startup incubators, but NONE were as transformative as working as “front of house” (cashier, juicer, delivery driver) for 3 months at Pressed Cafe. It’s not the fanciest job or title. And sometimes I had to clean the bathrooms. But the experience was transformative. Here were 5 reasons why: 1. I learned to deal with angry customers (who changed their coffee orders a bajillion times) 2. I learned to work hard consistently (my shift started at 5am daily) 3. I learned the power of stories and branding (still shocked people spend $10+ for glorified water) 4. I learned to stay calm during chaotic lunch hour (triaging order-taking and table-cleaning and delivery-driving like crazy) 5. You learn energy is contagious and an upbeat attitude is EVERYTHING Plus, I got to work with my brother :) Ben Jacobson Have you ever worked in a service job? What was your experience?

"Excited to embark on my journey as an intern at AssetVilla Financial Services LLP while pursuing my MBA in Finance! 🚀 Looking forward to gaining hands-on experience and contributing to the team's success. #Internship #MBA #Finance #AssetManagement"
