Overview
For this memorandum I will be analyzing the rhetorical skills and techniques used in the job posting for
my upcoming internship this summer, Business Solutions Intern Summer 2024 at Crowe LLP. More
specifically I will dive deep into the important information, formatting features, and organization of this
job description.
Information
To begin, I believe it is important to highlight the key features that define this job description. I believe
the most important components of this and any job description are the position itself, the role expectations
and requirements, the location, the time frame, and the company mission statement. All of these
components are clearly stated throughout the posting. First and foremost, the job description is clearly
stated and labeled at the top of the job posting as well as “Summer 2024” which indicates the time frame
of the position. Moving on, all role expectations and requirements are stated in an easy to read way that
allows the reader to comprehend and know what to expect out of the role. In addition, the mission
statement of the company is shown in an engaging infographic that allows the reader to understand the
company’s core values. However, even though these five main components of a job description are clearly
stated there is some lacking information that may cause a reader to be lost. For example, an individual
going into the role of Business Solutions Intern has the opportunity to work in a variety of business
sectors such as Manufacturing and Distribution, Public, Salesforce, Financial Services, and Healthcare.
Even though all of these different paths are clearly shown, there is no explanation as to how an individual
applies to what sector they choose. In addition, at the end of the job description it labels all available U.S.
offices in which Crowe hosts this internship opportunity, however does not clarify how an applicant
decides on a certain location. Overall, I believe this job description does a stellar job of effectively
communicating the main components of the role. However, there are a few minor things that are unclear.
Formatting
When discussing the effectiveness of the formatting of this job description, I believe it is formatted in a
way that allows a prospective applicant to easily understand. The job description as a whole is broken
down into five different components: Crowe/position background, possible sectors, education, location,
and company mission statement More specifically, each section has a noticeable label at the top to allow
the reader to understand what portion of the description they are reading. This is also an effective method
because it allows an application to quickly skim for information or quickly find a piece of information
Organization
Lastly, this job description is organized in an effective yet simple manner that communicates all crucial
components of the role. The position is clearly labeled at the head of the page, it then transitions into a
brief overview of the position as well as some company background. Then, the different avenues of work
are clearly labeled as well as a description of each sector. The description then transitions to list all
possible locations that a prospective intern can work at as well as the key expectation/education
requirements that someone can expect from this role. Finally, the job description is concluded with an
effective infographic and description of Crowe’s core values and mission statement. Over all, this job
description is organized in an effective manner that allows the reader to easily flow between the different
Conclusion
Overall, the job description for the Summer 2024 Business Solutions Intern at Crowe accurately details all
crucial components of a job description. Even though there are a few minor pieces of information
I hope this email finds you well! I am reaching out to request a short leave of absence from Wednesday,
October 11 to Friday, October 13 to reallocate my focus to working on developing and perfecting the
Procedure Manual for incoming Crowe employees. Regarding my current progress on the Procedure
Manual, I have completed a brief overview of the role requirements, expectations, as well as some
background on the company as a whole. I believe that if my request for time off is granted, I will be able
to create an effective system of transition for new hires to join the Crowe family.
Once this Procedure Manual is completed I see it serving as a crucial component of an individuals’s
transition into their area of work at Crowe. In addition, I envision this piece of work serving as a useful
reference for both employees and employers for years to come. More specifically, the Procedure Manual
will also contain components such as problem solving approach guides, information on professional
resources provided by the firm, as well as other perks that come along with serving as an associate at
Crowe.
In terms of my current work at Crowe, I believe I have set myself up for success through completing all
projects that needed to be completed before this requested leave of absence. Therefore, I do not believe
my absence will hold the team back from achieving success. However, my top priority is my position as
an associate at Crowe, so if you believe my absence will have negative repercussions I am more than
willing to spend personal time to designate to create the Procedure Manual. Thank you so much for taking
the time to consider my request and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Best,
Jason

There is no one typical day in the life of a consultant as consultant work is based around client service and
can be affected by meeting times as well as travel. However some consistencies include a morning set up,
team check ins, personal work time, lunch, as well as client communication periods. Morning setups serve
as a time for interns to educate themselves on their upcoming tasks, meetings, and projects for the day.
Interns are expected to arrive in the office by 8:00 AM. Following this time often comes a team meeting
for all members of a project to update each other on developments and expectations. Following this often
comes a designated lunch period allowing interns to take a break from their work and refuel. Then comes
a period for interns to take the time to complete all designated tasks and prepare for their client meetings.
Days are often wrapped up by a meeting with their client to present and communicate about the project.
