I would familiarize myself with SaaS applications and tools that are common used at tech companies as well as the ITGCs that you would have in scope. Think GitHub, Jenkins, interface and middleware tools. How would you test change management? What are example test procedures and attributes? How do you determine what is a control deficiency and how would you analyze it / discuss with the process owner for remediation. Just landed an IT audit manager role this year and had multiple interviews and this type of question always came up.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?
