What is an audit?
By definition, an audit, as we know, is a way of knowing whether a company, entity or organization, governmental or not, complies with and is in compliance with regulations , internal policies, good practices or other standards established, internally or externally, in accordance with what the Law requires.

Conducted by internal or external auditors, depending on the organization's needs and requirements, their results are generally used for more strategic decision-making , as well as for improving processes and providing more accurate and secure information to stakeholders, shareholders, regulators, creditors and the like.

The best known is the tax audit , where the company goes through a systematic process of examination, review and evaluation of financial and tax records, but there are other types of audits available on the market, such as accounting, operational and even IT (Information Technology).

Another type of audit is that carried out, for example, during the Brazilian elections, where the entire electoral process, including the electronic voting system, is auditable. This is also known as an electoral audit.

According to salary estimates made by the Glassdoor platform, on average, an auditor has a salary that varies from R$3,975.00 to R$17,250.00 , making it an interesting career possibility to pursue.
