5 LSU CIA Update Samantha Falgoust LSUCIA March 2017 Company Presentations Throughout the semester, students attended various industry and consulting presentations from companies that recruit through the LSUCIA program. Each company presented on a topic pertaining to the practice of internal auditing, such as fraud, data analytics, technology and information systems. Each presentation lasted an hour, followed by dinner and networking between the students and company recruiters. The company presentations gave students the opportunity to meet and network with the companies prior to the interview process. Class Events On Friday, February 10, LSUCIA hosted The Credible You interviewing skills workshop for all LSUCIA students. The workshop was created by Robert Blackburn and designed to help students in their responses to interview questions, while learning how to create a good impression.
