SA IMA Back in Person for August

Tuesday May 11 2021

 

San Antonio Chapter

As you may have seen in IMA's CEO and President Jeff Thomson's emailed announcement last week, US chapters are able to resume in person meetings beginning August 1st.  

We will be returning to the Old San Francisco Steakhouse at 10223 Sahara Dr., 78216 for our regularly-scheduled meeting on Thursday, August 19th.  We will once again be doing our networking at 5:30pm Central Time and hold our professional meeting at 6-8pm Central Time.  To celebrate our return to the real world, we have a VERY special guest who will be presenting.  You will absolutely NOT want to miss this!

We will continue to broadcast our event on line (from 6-8pm) for those who are not yet comfortable meeting in person or who live too far away to drive to the event.  

Stay tuned for more details as we get closer.  

Finally, this return to in-person meetings means that our CPE event at the scenic Hyatt Hill Country Resort & Spa on Friday, (7:30am-5pm) October 1st and Saturday (8am-12noon) October 2nd is confirmed!   

To help manage people's financial and time budgets - and to help the chapter's volunteers who will be very busy making this event one for the history books, we will NOT be holding our September or October monthly chapter meetings.

More details on all of this will be coming soon as well. 

Sincerely, 

Yolanda Solano
Chapter President

 

 

 

Internship At Frost Bank

tuesday may 11 2021

 

We just had a meeting and I wanted to pass this opportunity along to you. Frost’s Audit Department is looking for 2 interns.

 

They must meet the following requirements:

Must be able to work 20 hours per week. Schedule is flexible within business hours.

Must have AT LEAST 2 full semesters left.

Must be pursuing a degree in Accounting/Finance/Management Information Systems/Data Analytics or other like field.

 

At this time, this opportunity is a remote internship. As things are changing at a rapid pace, I cannot guarantee that this position will remain remote.

 

I don’t have a lot of experience working with the Interns, but to my understanding they work a lot with the SOX Manager performing various Sampling and Testing. Additionally, from time to time, they have been known to assist in-charges with various audit steps.

 

If you do have any students that meet these requirements that are interested, please have them submit their resume at:
