Your title says Junior Auditor. Are we missing something here?

You could rise to the challenge by working many hours above and beyond to study the audit plans, study the applicable accounting, audit, principles and if applicable, local rules and regulations. Also study the entity you are auditing prior work files, applicable accounting/audit guidance to that industry. It is an enormous amount of work if there are multiple audits going on. I have done this when necessary. I have worked in state government and now federal government in auditing. I also had accounting experience prior to auditing. To me, this is very engaging work.
