Whether you are starting your career or bringing relevant experience in audit, accounting, finance or assurance, you will gain hands-on exposure to audit engagements by understanding how businesses operate, reviewing financial information, testing transactions, evaluating supporting evidence, documenting audit work and identifying matters for discussion with the audit team. You will also interact with clients, use technology and data to support audit procedures, and develop the professional judgement, discipline and confidence needed to build a strong career in audit, accounting, finance and broader professional services.
