What is the transition like from public accounting to internal audit? I’ve been at RSM for a year now and have a decent amount of SEC experience. I’m thinking I may want to switch to internal audit within the next 1-2 years.

Experienced hires who have recently joined Big 4, how rough has the transition been?

I am planning to leave my firm after busy season and I am wondering if I should let them know this is my last busy season or stay quite and just give my 2 weeks after busy season? I really like the people I work with and I think I could boomerang (read to many posts of people who boomerang and I fit the "type"). Should I tell them know or just stay silent and give my 2 weeks notice?

I recently became an Anaplan Certified Level 1 Model Builder and have been applying to a lot of roles.

Interested in becoming a Google cloud product manager. Here are my observations on the experience you will need to be considered.

Here are my observations about the skills and experiences that PMs have and how people are joining that group.

They are all technical. All of them could easily be very technical cloud consultants or cloud engineers.
Tl/Dr. If you couldn't get hired as a cloud engineer or cloud consultant - you probably can't become a PM

I think I bombed my final round today. Was taken a bit aback with a pure focus on numbers so took a bit of time solving it and in the end interviewer skipped one part of a chart cos she had to move on to other charts. The qualitative case part went well I think. Disappointed in myself!

Hello,

Can someone give me an overview of what Internal Audit does? Received an offer for IA and currently work in External Audit. Want to know the differences between the two.

for those of you in internal audit at the senior level, how many hours a week do you average ?

How do people in the IA profession motivate themselves? Personally, I love the fact that we are exposed to different business processes (rather than a specific number or subject matter), also I actually like the fact we are a bit more creative than the typical “in our less than humble opinion we think this number is not too incorrect” approach adopted by our external counterparts.

Does anyone work for a large privately held company that is using their IA strategically to identify risks specific to the current pandemic? If so, what company and what are you looking at?

Would it be difficult to get a job in IA if most of my experience has been auditing private non-404 asset mgmt funds? I really enjoy process walkthroughs when I have them though. Also, does title matter that much in IA? I’m a manager now, but based on job descriptions it looks like I might have to go for a senior auditor role because audit manager roles generally call for 8+ years from what I’m seeing. Can title be negotiated?

Would you leave external audit for internal audit even if there is no base increased, just sign on bonus? Been having an awful year round busy season and I’m just done. I have heard from multiple sources that WLB is better.

Has anyone taken the CIA exam? If so what study materials did you use?

Share you bonus number along with number of years of experience in internal audit or industry in general.

Hi, I recently got offer for retail banking IA function in JP morgan. This is my first move from public accounting and was wondering if IA is the way to go. Anyone working in similar role how are you finding it? What sort of career opportunity can IA offer?

Is anybody familiar with the CIA challenge exam?

I am currently a CPA debating if I should work towards a CIA certification.

If I read this correctly I can forgoe some of the CIA exam since I am already a CPA. Is this correct?

Do you see substantial gaps between internal auditing outcomes on one side, and expectations of stakeholders on another side?

What third party applications are most of you guys using for internal audit management and sox testing? (I.e. workiva) and would you recommend it?

Anyone here know the starting salary for an AVP at Barclays/Citi? Thinking about applying, but I’d like some insight.

Please share experience with Agile in IA. Seems like a lot of time spent in meetings.

I recently transitioned from corporate finance to IA. I have a little bit of downtime. What resources do you recommend to help build my skillset and assist with the transition?

So I’m probably thinking too much. But I’m looking to leave public accounting and have an opportunity with internal audit. I want to make sure where I go I have good opportunities to advance and if needed be marketable to other companies. Do you think internal audit makes you more or less marketable to other opportunities in the future?

My co's IA dept is very new and my boss has asked me to look into a format for a memo we would write to a process owner to make a process recommendation. Not a formal finding in an audit report but more of a process recommendation. Do other companies have something similar?

Is anyone hiring an internal audit manager with 7 YOE in industry they can refer me to? In public now. business process and IT Audit experience mostly in SOX but also operational audits, Department reviews, and some DRP work in every industry except media/entertainment and government.
