"I've always loved auditing. It's a giant puzzle and detective work all in one. You get to dig deep and find the inner workings of a company. Financial audits show you exactly what the company spends money on. If it's a user access review, you have to dig down and find all the required documentation for the access necessity and approvals. You're a private investigator and a puzzle master, and if you can embrace it, you'll love it."

This is a subjective answer. I can't tell you why you enjoy being an auditor. This is personal to you and no one else. I can tell you why I love being an auditor and what I love about being an accountant, but that's not you.

Don't embellish this if you don't know. If you're simply testing the water, admit it. No one can blame you for not having the perfect answer to this question.

"I love auditing because I'm great at attention to detail. I love finding small details that can make a difference to a company."
