State Auditor's Office Work Values

Daily Duties at State Auditor's Office:

I conduct performance and compliance audits of state departments and authorities in MA, in order to identify any instances of fraud or misuse of taxpayer funds. I am heavily involved in all aspects of the audit process from contributing to fraud brainstorming sessions, developing audit objectives, performing data analysis as it relates to planning, conducting walk-throughs of systems and processes, developing and performing internal control and substantive tests, assessing the results of the tests, and developing recommendations for the auditee to improve its processes, and in turn, improve the services it provides to its recipients.

What they like about State Auditor's Office:

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
