So i say i dun know or i havent covered it...!! The I DONT KNOW is what is bothering them and creating a bad impression on me...!!  I will learn dats not a problem, but expecting to know everything frm the beginning is what is pressurizing me...!!

What People are thinking abt you,Why is it Bothering...

Its Khudi..Call it Self,Ego for Good,Soul or What ever...

Alaama Iqbal Says

"Khudi( is something which u ve to answer for) ko kar buland itna,ki har Taqdeer Se pehle khudha Bande se Khud Pooche Bata teri Raza kya".

Identify the soul in you, of what u ve to do,to which u are answerable...

The Self/Soul in you is maker of following things-

Charecter-

Goal

Determation

Peace.

Success.

and What not !. for Good.

I must admit its an opputunity. and very few have the kind of luck you have

Well try this out

Take a paper and start making a list

 the first list -

1. what are the areasof work  that you have learnt/ come accross well so far

2. now out of those try to mark out the areas which make u nervous or you think that  you still need to know about it more.

3. Take one Topic at a time and write down your doubt/ question u want to know about that topic

4. After completing the above threee steps you will realise  where are u standing right now.

Good Bless !!

try to work on them one by one 

"I DONT KNOW ANYTHING AND I DONT WORK AND THAT IM USELESS"
 

Even i felt the same sme three years ago..have little patience..carry on your hard work..time will change..all the best..

 

Hi dear,

Dont worry.......Life does not end here........ It has to go further.......... Your depression is because you have expected a lot from the work you did and it went towards the other side of your expectation....... To be frank you cant concentrate in any studies right now with this mentality......... just relax yourself with wat you like the most. Think of things you have achieved so far in your life time. .......

Make up your mind to not think of this matter for a minimum time..........

Problem faced by you is just because of experience which you were lacking ( this is common to all first year students) ........... This is faced by every article who enters office with much expectations in mind and because of seniors who want to skip their work by alloting to juniors ( even after knowing that juniors cant handle this alone and need more experience to handle) .....

Think of the areas where you lacked and how you lacked ....... Try to attract your seniors to your side and make them your friends..... Try to know from them itself where you lacked; what they expected from you;

Mind it.....  it happens in every place..... Even i experienced the same when i was new to my office and my all my seniors went for exam leave..... even i was asked to do things which was not known by me....  I too suffered a lot...........

Dont worry... things will go fine in future... But at any situation try to make yourself update with the professional knowledge which is very much required for the next opportunity awaiting for you.................

All the best.... as someone said....... God has created you for something; try to be a good senior if not a good junior....... learn more things and teach more to your juniors............

madam, its your only life so you only come out from this depression, everyone can give suggesion but you and only YOU CAN MAKE DECISION about your life, how it should be.

Depression..! "Duniya mein Sab se Badha Rog ,kya kahenge mere baare mein Log".

Aap unke negative views ko itna importance kyun de rahi hain. Aapko pata hai ki aapne apna kaam poori honesty se kiya hai then why to worry about others who don't know how you did it? Abhi bhi aapko jo bhi kaam diya jata hai us par acche se concentrate karo bas aur jab wo aapki us kaam mein performance dekhenge to wo khud hi apni fault realize karenge. Aur haan everbody is not perfect aur sabkuch itni jaldi bhi nahin seekha ja sakta. Don't worry everything will be allright.

Agree with Hitesh ji.

If they ask you anything and you say that I don't know. Just note down that point which you don'ty know and work on it and ya You too don't think that only by doing one Audit you will be able to know each and everything just concentrate on what you are doing right know. Our Good Wishes are with you.

Hi Sanjana,

Remember this quote always !

“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Consider  ur failure as ur stepping stone. No instruction is left untold over internet. If u hv not been provided with a checklist, first refresh yourself with “HOW TO CONDUCT AN INTERNAL AUDIT”.

1. Get details about the Comapany you are about to  audit as to what their business is – source of income and application of money.
2. Who all are the authorites to spend the money.
3. Take one Book at a time, say CASH. Since you are doing quarterly audit, no. of vouchers will be comparitvely less. When checking the Cash book with the vouchers given to you,

1. Check if all vouchers are available and choronoligcally  and  serially numbered.
2. Check if all expenses/income are relevant to the business carried on.
3. Check if abnormal exp/income has been approved by the right person..
4. Check if they have been taken to relevant account heads..
5. Check if a particular exp is a mere purchase or Capital Expdr... like wise keep going. Once u get a clue, u can automatically proceed....After all these stages, u will get to learn preparing financial statements.

Auditing is not that tedious at all Sanjana....if you are allowed to go through the entries in the computer, do ledger scrutiny. For eg. Take sundry creditors, check if there is only credit balance for all parties. If any body has a debit balance.....pose questions...dont let them unless they give u a satisfactory reply. Otherwise, note it down and inform your Auditor as your observation. Try not to give them a chance to question you...dont allow them to think that you are a dunce. Be confident with what you are doing. For that u need to do some ground work and you are capable to do it.

Though auditing isnt my profession, i hv handled audit queries  continuously for almost 5 years. Now am working in a different concern where am doing internal audit though not professionally, but to keep our books correct.

Therez nothing to be scared or worried about it... as some one has quoted here, nobody is useless, but used less...u r unique, there can never be another sanjana like you... If you can, jus go thru the earlier audit reports done by your collegues, if you have any doubts get it clarified.  This way get ready to say “I CAN/WILL DO THE NEXT AUDIT”....All the best Sanjana..opportunities galore..dont worry
