HOW WILL THE AUDIT BEGIN?
At the beginning of the review, the auditors will introduce themselves to you and the other key employees who will participate in this review. Employee interviews will be arranged to review each section of the review. At the interview, the auditor will begin by explaining the objectives of the interview, and ask you to explain how you perform certain tasks. The auditor may ask you questions to clarify your job practices and identify the internal controls already in place for your duties. You may be asked to provide examples for forms or transactions you complete, or to walk through job steps from beginning to end. We don’t have standard “recipes” to conduct our reviews. The work of any review is crafted to address the unique concerns of each entity reviewed. To help determine our scope of work, we may request from the department being audited organization charts and summary financial information for the current and prior fiscal year.
