What are some interesting problems the student will work on?

You will have to use analytical thinking to get to the bottom of the issue, know what system to use, and apply the correct resolution.As some operational processes are highly manual you will need to review the financials in great detail to identify any errors that may have occurred. For example: if you see a large drop (or increase) in monthly recurring revenue you wouldpull customer level information in order tounderstand the change. Further questioning could either help explain the variance or point out that possible billing errors were made and need to be corrected (in the general ledger and on the customers next invoice).
