My audit life

That day, we talked about our audit life...big firm or small firm, it doesn't matter. We also made a conclusion, we don't like it when we are in the firm but when we think back, it's a life memory.

I was with a medium audit firm for 3 1/2 years. Not too long, not to short though. Life in an audit firm is easier when you are a junior...especially during off peak season. And the most happiest moment is when you go for outside audit with a group of colleagues. What is outside audit? Most of the time, auditors will work in the company as the client will send the related documents to the audit firm. But sometimes auditors will go to client office to perform the auditing work...so, this is call outside audit.

During peak season, from Jun until Aug, auditors will be very busy as most of the limited companies close their accounts in Dec (Note: company law required every limited company to submit their audited accounts plus tax computation 6 to 7 months aster they close their accounts). It's a tough time during the peak season. Sometimes, we will be asked to work until after midnight. For some people, it is a nightmare.

Although audit life is tough, but it was a fruitful memory for me..at least.
