About the Internal Auditing test

Internal auditing plays a vital role in providing independent and objective assurance, which enhances confidence in financial reporting, helps identify and mitigate risks, and improves overall operational efficiency. Skilled internal auditors contribute to maintaining the integrity of an organization's operations, safeguarding assets, and ensuring compliance with laws, regulations, and internal policies.

By hiring candidates with strong internal auditing skills, organizations can establish a robust internal audit function and foster a culture of accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement.

This Internal Auditing test evaluates candidates’ abilities to organize and manage the internal audit function in an organization, conducting risk assessment and internal control testing, and performing internal audits, including reporting audit findings.

Candidates who score well on this test can help your organization ensure a highly skilled internal audit team that adds value, provides assurance on the effectiveness of controls and risk management, and assists in improving organizational processes and performance.

What our customers are saying

TestGorilla helps me to assess engineers rapidly. Creating assessments for different positions is easy due to pre-existing templates. You can create an assessment in less than 2 minutes. The interface is intuitive and it’s easy to visualize results per assessment.

Review from G2

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
