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

as a trainee auditor I do a lot of admin and rolling forward of tasks. I also do some testing of the client's financial statements to ensure they are not materially misstated. The job requires a lot of travelling to different client sites and a lot of team work

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

interpersonal skills have improved as I have had to work in a big team a lot of the time and speaking to strangers and having to work with them straight away. Also speaking to clients and having to create a client relationship. I developed my listening skills also when being coached on what to do.
