Audit Assistant Review

As an audit assistant, I am tasked to prepare leads and workpapers on the audit of various clients, aiding seniors in audits and checking for material amounts/variances in clients' financial statements.

I have learned a variety of new skills within audit, checking for variance in testing as well as fraud within accounts. I have developed my organisational and communication skills within my work, collaborating as a team and working towards end goals.

I would say I enjoy this quite a lot, it is difficult at times managing both work and study (I have to usually study after hours/on weekends to keep up) but overall, it is a very fulfilling and informative job.

I would say it is relatively organised, my work schedule is very organised but studies are down to me mores so.

I receive a good amount of support from my employer, if I want more support I can ask and receive more if needed.

I receive a good amount, I feel that Kaplan could be better with going over exam technique for exams, but we are given a good amount of information.

At each level, I see further progression in understanding my role and my work, as well as the learning for exams where I can successfully consolidate my revision.

There are quite a few, I can choose to get involved with a variety of social activities however I would like more sports to be involved in.

Crowe UK has always been supportive of my aims, and has monitored me in a way that I don't feel restricted, or pressured to the point it sacrifices my other goals.

My advice would be to understand audit first and what you want from it, there's a variety of sectors you can specialise into and by understanding audit better beforehand, you can improve at a much better rate.
