Build experience across markets
Work inside a US organisation and see how its teams handle analysis, clients and day-to-day decisions. Develop professional contacts and practical experience beyond your existing network.
Make your financial experience easy to assess
Prepare examples of reporting, company research, financial modelling or accounting work from your studies or career in Hong Kong. Explain assumptions and conclusions in English without disclosing client information. A clear account of your responsibilities helps us prepare you for US employer interviews.
The work you could do
We match your background to the employer and role. Typical areas of work include:
- Support financial reporting and accounting processes
- Contribute to budgeting and treasury analysis
- Prepare supervised corporate-finance research
- Explore risk or investment research where suitable
Prepare for your employer interviews
Accounting, finance, economics, business and relevant quantitative study or professional experience.
Prepare examples of analysis, reporting, accounting study or research. Explain your assumptions and what the numbers mean, not just the software you used. Relevant professional experience should be described through responsibilities and processes, without sharing confidential client or employer information.
Your paid placement, arranged before departure
Aureus prepares you for employer interviews, secures your paid placement and coordinates the J-1 process. Your proposal sets out the programme fee and guarantee before you enrol; your employer offer confirms the role, hours, location and pay. Budget separately for travel and living costs where these are not included.
Questions for your next step
Does Hong Kong residence decide which US documents I need?+
No. Nationality, education, experience and programme eligibility are reviewed separately from residence. We confirm the relevant process during your review.
