ITPEC FE Morning October 2020 Question 58

A system auditor's core duty during an interview is to obtain supporting documents and records that corroborate information gathered from the audited department. Auditors must verify claims with evidence, not rely on verbal statements alone.

Why not others:
- (a) Multiple auditors can conduct interviews — coordination handles consistency
- (b) Auditors do not instruct departments to implement fixes — they report findings and recommend; management decides on corrective action
- (d) Interviewees should be staff from the audited department who perform the actual work, not former auditors

Key rule: Audit principle — always verify interview statements with documentary evidence.
