1. Based on the most helpful WSO content, if you’ve just started a position in April and are applying for internships immediately, it’s best to list the duration as April-Present. This reflects that you are currently in the role and avoids any potential misrepresentation of your timeline.

2. For the experience section, you can include a brief description of the tasks and responsibilities you are expected to handle, based on the job description or what has been communicated to you. It’s common to outline the scope of the role even if you haven’t completed significant tasks yet. Use future tense sparingly or stick to past tense for consistency and readability. For example:

• "Assisting in financial modeling and analysis for M&A transactions."
• "Conducting market research and preparing pitch materials for client presentations."

This approach ensures your resume remains relevant and professional while acknowledging the early stage of your current role.
