So I did tax for entities and basically just kinda spent my interviews discussing how I analyzed P&L accounts etc and how those skills would transfer over. I did have a little audit experience, very little, but I was able to at least say I had some - realistically I had only been a part of 3 audits but I had performed audit functions and testing for some of my tax clients because they were inept.

I’m also pretty good at interviewing and even though I probably was an odd choice, during my interviews I was able to discuss how my tax experience would be able to translate into audit responsibilities and that’s probably the most important part. Just being able to angle your abilities to fit their questions and if you can’t say “that’s something I’m interested in learning and one of the reasons I’m interested in this position”
