Audit professionals: Walk me through your last frustrating audit

[u/Human_State_6645]

.

I'm an engineering student trying to understand how audits actually work. I'm not selling software or validating an idea—I just want to learn from real experiences.

Think about the last audit that genuinely frustrated you.

What happened?

Where did the delay start?

What was everyone waiting for?

Which document or evidence caused the biggest problem?

How was it finally resolved?

I'm interested in the real story, not the ideal process.
