Welcome to the spring semester from KPMG!
With a new semester comes new opportunities! KPMG would like to be one of the first to officially welcome you back to school for the spring 2022 semester. We are excited to connect with you this semester, ensuring you have all the information you need for recruitment and beyond.
The health, well-being, and safety of students, faculty, and our professionals continue to be our utmost priority and with that in mind, KPMG will conduct a fully virtual recruiting program through the spring semester.
All positions will be posted and live on our KPMG website beginning Thursday, January 13th – the national application deadline is Sunday, February 20th at 11:59pm Pacific. As you prepare to apply, set aside enough time to complete your application without interruption (about 25-30 minutes). Some applications will have you perform a series of gamified tests to match your compatibility with the role. Be sure to have an updated resume and unofficial transcript(s) ready before you begin! A few key reminders to note:
- Applying is the second step. Research first! You owe it to your future self to invest time in understanding the myriad of KPMG career options and locations and making an informed decision.
- Apply for the location and practice you would most see yourself working in the future.
- Resist the urge to throw your hat in the ring for multiple jobs – focus on one thoughtful, thorough application for your top preference.
- Is location or practice more important to you? Be consistent in the preferences and priorities you articulate in your recruiting journey.
- Keep in mind once your application is submitted, it is FINAL. Review responses for accuracy. Your application cannot be edited when submitted.
- Ensure you meet the job qualifications PRIOR to applying to a position. Pay attention to graduation date requirements!
- Some of our positions require that applicants must be able to work in the U.S. without need for employment-based visa sponsorship now or in the future. Please be sure to review all Job Qualifications closely. If you are interested in recruiting with one of our KPMG member firms outside of the U.S., please use this resource here.

Space Telescope Science Institute
Summer 2022 Virtual Internship - Deadline to Apply 01/31/22
UMBCworks Posting: 9334287
Each summer, the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) hires about a dozen highly motivated college students for the Space Astronomy Summer Program (SASP) to work individually with STScI researchers and staff on projects that include Science Research; Science Instrumentation + Calibration; Science Software Development; and Science Public Outreach. STScI is a premier astronomical research institution, and our scientific staff of astronomers, scientists, analysts, and engineers is at the forefront of some of the most exciting astronomy going on today, including the study of our own solar system, the structure of the Milky Way, the composition of near and distant galaxies, and dark energy.
The virtual program runs June 6th through August 5, 2022, and is primarily open to upper-division undergraduates with a strong interest in space-based astronomy, software engineering, or public outreach (other candidates may be considered on an individual basis). Prior research experience and coding skills are not required. The internship includes a salary of approximately $6,480 and interns will be provided with a computer loan for the duration of the program. Students must be in US to participate.
All of the 2022 SASP interns are matched with a project and a mentor. During your internship, you will meet virtually on a regular basis with your mentor, attend lectures on a wide variety of astronomy and career topics, and interact with other interns and staff, building skills that will help you succeed in STEM fields.
STScI proudly partners with the National Astronomy Consortium (NAC) to provide research opportunities to women and underrepresented minorities in astronomy-enterprise areas, and other STEM fields.
STScI sees the diversity of their staff as a strategic priority in their desire to create a first-rate community. They reflect that deep commitment in strongly encouraging women, minorities, veterans and disabled individuals to apply for these opportunities.

Reality AI is an audio signal processing company that provides solutions to the clients using Artificial Intelligence and Tiny ML. Reality AI offers AI-driven technology to help you find the most cost-effective instrumentation, components, and placement - and to build, optimize and deploy ML models in your product’s firmware.
In my journey at the company, I have assisted in collecting and curating the sound data that can be used to train the models on. After the data is in good shape and ready to go in the pipeline, I have trained models to classify or to perform anomaly detection. Along with being in the technical team, I have been in the customer success team and interacted with clients to know their expectations, deliver the results, assisting them in the future plans and strategies they could follow to meet the goal and discuss future steps.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
I applied to the position in mid-July through UMBCworks. I heard back from the company in mid-August, and the interview was scheduled.
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?
Due to the type of work I do, I have to go to the office onsite. The most exciting thing is I get to meet the team members and my manager with whom I work closely. I enjoy a lot, to test the models in action and see how it actually performs. I enjoy this part of my work the most.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
I have curated the data that is used by the automobile industry, health industry, personal and safety industry. The data I collect and segment goes in the ML conduit and helps in providing the best results. The solutions are used by various clients that in real life make use of it. This makes their life easier and smoother.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
My guidance to other aspiring students would be to build your network and communicate with more people. Work on your resume and seek help from the Career Center if needed. Look out for the positions available and modify your resume to the expectations of the position. Be prepared for an interview as the opportunity may come to your door anytime.

Intern of the Week: Tejaswi Pandey for Information Systems!
Check out Tejaswi's internship with Splunk!
Name: Tejaswi Pandey
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site: Splunk
Position Title: Incident Response Intern
Major or Program: Information Systems Major, Economics Minor
Current Class Level: Senior
Work Term: Spring 2021 and Summer 2021 (Feb 8 to July 30, 2021)
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.
Splunk's Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) advised me to learn as much as possible during my six-month internship so that my skills and goals align with the company's mission statement, ensuring I would become a promising candidate for potential hire.
Coming from a nursing background, this conversation helped me overcome my imposter syndrome as many of my fellow interns came from Ivy League and top liberal arts universities worldwide with years of experience in the technology field. The manager assigned me two mentors who helped me to enhance my cybersecurity skills.
My day usually started with CompTIA Security+ and Network+ e-learning. Then, I would meet with my Junior Mentor (Senior Analyst) to understand the materials in-depth. During the day, I attended team meetings, Womxn Employee Resource Group (ERG) sessions and shadowed members from various roles within the company. In between meetings, I did hands-on ethical hacking training.
For a recent project, I built an AWS EC2 instance using an Apache HTTP server. I then installed network security tools to scan for possible vulnerabilities by analyzing a large quantity of logs. During ethical hacking, I collaborated with the Penetration team, actively monitoring network traffic in real-time, detecting active intrusion, and immediately mitigating compromises on the server. Later in the day, I would meet with my second mentor (Principal Analyst) providing project updates, and get feedback.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
A career development program called Year Up helped me obtain a CompTIA Security+ certificate and land a six-month internship at Splunk as an Incident Response and Digital Forensics Intern. At the end of my internship, I received two full-time job offers to start this Fall '21 semester. I am excited to share that I am continuing at Splunk as a full-time Cloud Operations Incident Commander while pursuing my bachelor's degree in Information Systems and minor in Economics at UMBC.
I pro-actively leveraged the following skills during my internship that led me to full-time conversion:
- Communication: I set up a weekly meeting with my team manager to build a professional relationship by updating projects and feedback and taking the initiative by proposing projects to the team. This allowed my manager to advocate for me to senior management during the conversion process and receive recommendations for future employment.
- Networking: I followed Instagram career influencers - Jonathan Javier and Jerry Lee (Wonsulting), Manny Duenas (The Career Doctor), and Emily Durham (Career Coach). I utilized these influencers' content to network with senior management. This allowed me to get insights on upcoming open roles and receive mentorship. I also attended the Women in Tech Conference, where the senior managerial members from FAANG companies and the former First Lady, Michelle Obama, attended as a keynote speaker. Platforms like these educated me to utilize proven strategies to climb the ladder in a heavily male-dominated industry.
- Branding Myself: Being an Economics minor student, I started investing in stocks and cryptocurrency early in my 20's. I would start and end my day by reading the news and understanding the current economic market. At the internship, I usually initiated conversations about the latest cyber breach, inflation, and stocks during happy hours, which created a personal and professional barrier.
- Professionalism: I grew up in Prince George's County, Maryland. And that to me, professionalism was heavily about code-switching. I reflexively or subtly changed how I expressed myself at Splunk while staying true to myself and holding diversity in my team. I quickly adapted to the environment by resonating with one of Splunk's core values, "Open," so that I was not just trying to fit in, but instead, I was culturally compatible.
What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization?
It was a dream come true participating at my first Splunk Summer Hackathon in Product and Technology 2021. About 300 Splunk employees participated in the event, and my team made it to the Top 20 Finalists. Another full-time employee and I collaborated and built a “Multi-Cloud Billing Dashboard” using Splunk Cloud interactive Treemap visualization allowing project managers to compare cloud infra-cost and reduce the cost. Even though we only had two days to work on the project, I truly enjoyed jumpstarting new ideas, collaborative working style, and planning future works that can be completed asynchronously.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
Growing up, I did not have many examples to look up to. As a first-generation student from a low-income background, it has been a significant growth opportunity for me to intern and now work as a full-time employee at Splunk. To promote diversity and inclusion, I shared my story in Splunk's intern feature, "Million data points" and "National Intern Day," to showcase that I bring great value to both minds and culture. I aspire to open the door for others from marginalized communities to break into their tech career and lead with courage and authenticity.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
I switched my major from Pre-Nursing to Information Technology in my junior year of college. I had just started taking IT pre-requisite classes and actively applying for an internship. I received rejections from all internships I applied to due to a lack of prior technical experience. I would advise another student to take CompTIA certification for equivalent work experience and demonstrate their passion for technology by attending tech conferences and volunteering at middle school coding classes.
Likewise, most companies offer apprenticeships for those who come from a non-traditional background and would like to breakthrough into a career in technology. Some programs are Google IT Apprenticeship and Residency Program, Microsoft Leap Apprenticeship, Capital One Cyber Program, Accenture Apprenticeship Program, Okta Accelerator Program, Year Up, and Per Scholas.
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
