17. What platforms have you audited in the past?
How to Answer
This is a basic question. Auditing is not like regular accounting. There will be programs that most people have not heard of. Basically, anything that affects the company can be audited, i.e., financials, health insurance, IT compliance, etc. You'll run into so many different systems that those you use at one company may not be the same at any other company you work with.
If you don't have any experience with any platforms, admit it. Honesty is always the best policy.
