Give me an example of time you had to fix the journal entries, how you found the error, and how you fixed it.

"When you find an error, the first thing you need to do is compare the invoice or bill to the total listed. Then you find who posted it and use it as a training moment. If you don't correct the error, then it will happen again. So you find the details that match the error, go into the system, and make the adjustment before re-posting."

This is a simple question. If you've ever discovered an error in the journal entries and had to correct it, then you can easily answer this. If you've never found an error, then explain it and describe the process of how your team inputs the data to ensure there are no errors.

If you have no experience entering journal entries or reviewing them, be honest. This is a low level position and is great for learning the field. Being honest is the best policy here.

"I was the reviewer for the journal entries for my previous company and it was common to find an error. Basically, when I found the error, I sent it back to the person who input it and used it as a training moment to show them why it was out of balance."
