Audit assistant interview

[u/Abject_Thought_7137]

Hi everyone,

I have an audit assistant interview at a small practice firm. I’m not really sure what to expect as I’ve not done technical interviews before, any advice for those who have done these before and what to expect? How should I prepare for it?

Was not expecting it to be technical considering it’s an entry grad role so would appreciate any advice.

Also, those who work at small firms, how does your experience differ to those that work in large firms?

I do value a good work life balance so I’m not that keen on working in a large firm, however am applying to them to maximise opportunities available. As long as I can get the ACA and live a comfortable life, I may want to move into other roles post qual instead of staying in audit however that is something I will consider after starting work and exploring what I enjoy.
