1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

The role is to complete any administrative tasks, send emails to client companies asking for documents or explanations regarding the financial statements, querying any misstatements and selecting samples to carry out audit testing. Checking for correct casting and mistakes in financial statements and setting up meetings and room bookings is also part of it.

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I have learnt how to use Excel to complete correct casting, do Vlookups, summations, check for differences in lead schedules and trial balances as well as comparing the financial statements to the lead schedules and trial balances. I have learnt to use Aura navigator as well as client connect which is required.
