22. How do you feel past experience has prepared you for the Audit Manager role?
How to Answer
Be sure to highlight the different areas you were exposed to as a Staff/Senior Auditor. To not sound like a 'know it all', make sure to acknowledge that even in a manager role, there is still plenty to learn once you have been hired.

Answer Example
"I have been in a Senior Auditor role for the last two years, and I have been fortunate to have been exposed to a variety of different roles and responsibilities. Since I work at a boutique accounting firm, I was able to be involved in all aspects of the audit, including planning, internal controls assessments, tax returns, and analytical procedures to name a few. Additionally, even though my role was not technically manager level, I still took pride in taking younger staff under my wing. I believe that this experience sets me up nicely for the next step in my career. Of course, I also realize there is much more to learn as I grow."
