Field Auditor Analysis
I'm glad things are going well. I knew you would be happier with your current position. Isn't a 180 from Ivy Tech? That's why I wanted you to get out of there so bad because I don't think you remember how much better it could be.

Things are going well. I hit the ground running. Working on final approval for the department charter. Working on the risk assessment and identifying all the areas for the universe. Early next week I should have a list of all the auditable areas and start working on sending risk assessment surveys out. My goal is to get the risk assessment done by end of November and get an audit plan done early December. Nobody expects it until sometime in January; however, you know how I like to be an over achiever.

That's a little more challenging. I have conducted the first round of interviews and I'm going to interview one candidate one more time; however, may decided not to hire him. Another I like; however, she has no finance or accounting background. I just wish I could combine the two candidates and I would have one good one. I get another batch of applicants first week of November. I hope it is a better batch. The title of the positions hurts Field Auditor 2 (Senior Auditor) and Field Auditor 3 (Internal Auditor). That's just the classification they can be called anything; however, it hurts because it's what's indicated on the job description. Additionally, they posted the minimum salary of $33K & 30K which I'm going to pay a lot more than that which of course hurts things. I'm working with HR to remove the minimum salary, move to mid range, or something for the next posting. I'm sure that will …show more content…
Auditor role and have the state recruiter on it. Again I think working with HR to to fix the minimum salary issue will help. We will see with the next round of applicants. I'm going to push them to work with the universities to get some good candidates for the Internal Audit job (December graduates). As for the Senior Auditor it will be an uphill battle but I hope to hire good auditors (2 years experience) who I can train to be good Senior's. My goal is to get a team in place sometime in January; however, having a full department at that time may be

    Staffing today has changed greatly and presents many challenges for organizations. Many candidates are not as easy to find as they used to be. Many potential candidates are usually already employed. Many potential candidates that are already employed are looking for work but not aggressively. There are reports that suggest that more than half of the employees who work for other organizations are very interested in seeking new employment but often times are not making themselves known since they are looking so passively. This makes it difficult for many organizations to staff their agencies. Positions in the organizations are vacant but there not enough candidates applying to fill the vacancy. This can be difficult for organizations to have a healthy pool of candidates to choose from. Without a healthy pool of candidates positions can be left vacant for a longer period of time and it can become a detriment to the organization.…

    I really enjoyed my eighth grade year here, and it is all thanks to this campus. I have learned to accept that we are all moving on to high school, which is just another stage in life. High school will be the same, it will just have a different name. I look forward to meeting new people and seeing new faces as we mature. In the future, i am going to look back on this part of my life. I will remember the fantastic help I have received from this campus. When I receive my college diploma in my hand, I will remember how I got there and be so grateful for that. I wish more people could feel the way I feel about this school. I feel very lucky, honored, and again, grateful. If anyone ever asks for suggestions on where to go to school, my first answer will be SCCA. My success will reflect on the school when people ask how I became that. I will be very proud to say that I once got to be around such an outstanding group of people in the first place. Once again, I give thanks to everyone who has helped me get to where I am today. I wonder what I will learn in the future, but for now, I will focus on the…

    Secondly I would recommend an entire restructure of the existing interview process referred to as “crude and superficial” in the company. The current interview seems to be hugely unstructured, lacking in content. The job interview will be a primary source of information about candidates. The interview strategies I would implement in the company would be a mixture of two or three interview types. That being, firstly, an individual interview or a telephone interview and then a second phase to the screening process would be the introduction of work sampling as part of the interview process. The use on an individual interview and a telephone interview would be entirely dependent on the position(s) that needed to be filled at that time. An individual interview would be used for the recruitment of permanent full-time because with the more…

    The timeline that I have given myself for these positions although ambitious I believe is attainable. The plan for recruitment will be with the career centers at each of the local schools that provide these job training and degree programs, Career Builders.com as well as the local newspaper which also list their ads on Monster.com. The resumes will be required to have a cover letter detailing why our company should consider you for the job and your accolades that make you the best candidate for the job. By being so specific in the requirements for the cover letter, candidate will have an opportunity to boast about their personal achievements and detail any accomplishments thus, highlighting information in the resume. This will enable HR to then weed out the best ones after a comparison with the resume for the best candidates. Phone interviews will be the next step for candidates that have made it to that round followed up by skills test and in person interview (corporate, 2013).…

    Auditor Responsibility

    • 1220 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The expectation is that an auditor should be held responsible for the quality of his/her work. This is because a major error or omission by the auditor can result in a false opinion. Auditors have a moral, professional and legal responsibility. In the Companies Act 2006, Section 507 prevents auditors knowingly or recklessly causing an audit report to include any matter that is “misleading, false or deceptive in a material way”. To be proved in cases of civil liability Mr Justice Woolf in the case Lloyd Cheyham v Littlejohn (1985) established the 4 issues of duty of care, negligence, causation and quantum.…
