Overview
Carrying out different assertion fieldwork testing as part of an audit of a client company. This is to confirm the company’s financial statement are true, accurate and a fair and that everything has been correctly stated. My role is to carry out the fieldwork testing that contributes to the audit. This involves checking invoices, bank statements, stocks etc, communicating with the client, and using programmes such as Microsoft excel
Skills
Coming from a Biochemistry background I have learnt a lot about audit - what an audit it and what it involves. I have learnt how to carry out audit fieldwork testing and through this I have also improved my excel skills.
Responsibilities
Yes. I was given responsibility to carry out the fieldwork testing myself, and also to contact the clients myself by email and in-person conversations.
Support & Guidance
Everyone on my team was approachable to ask questions when I needed help. When I was given work to do it was always explaining very well to me.
Culture
Everyone was easy to get along with, and I found it was nice to get to know everyone when I was working on-site. The team were approachable and made an effort to build relationships such as via the social events.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed my internship and had a really positive experience and I am looking forward to coming back after my final year of university.
Yes
Make sure to ask lots of questions as this helps you understand what testing you are doing in the wider context. Make sure to be confident and take up every opportunity so that you get the most out of your experience.
