VINGT ANS APRÉS.
Abstract The article discusses the present outlook of accounting students in accountancy. The article asserts that accounting practitioners are ever on the alert for promising neophytes, hence graduates of collegiate schools of business are reasonably certain of positions, and, the immediate monetary reward is considerably higher to a beginner than it was in the decade next preceding the Second World War. Chances for promotion, too, are better than heretofore because of the internal growth of accounting firms, and the diversification of clientele activities that offers chances for specialization. As always, advancement depends upon the aptitude of, and the interest displayed by, the employee. Interest may be shown by close observation while auditing, and later offering suggestions to the staff leader for improvements in clients' accounting systems, and for procedural changes in the audit programs to conform with altered conditions in the concerns under audit. Also, the acquisition of the certified public accountant certificate is an indication of sincerity in the decision to make public accounting a career.
