I've never seen myself in a position of working as a public accountant for any government ministry but I know that it is something that has to do with management of their financial record and budget. They take part in embezzlement of state funds if they know how to cover their tracks.

Public accountants working in many governmental departments are government servants. They tend to hold high ranks and this depends a lot on their designation, position, and experience as well. Being a public accountant is not an easy job at all.

Most of them who are currently holding that position in government Ministries in my country actually are not there by merit but by connection, which is what is killing the government sector in my country because of the way they hire those that work in viable position in the government.

The embezzlement can occur in countries where corruption is the order of the day. It is rare to see it happen in some other countries where one can be punished and arrested for stealing public funds. This is why having strong institutions working perfectly well in the country is very important.
 
I have no experience here but my wife did this when she was younger and still working out of the home. She did not like it. I guess you have to enjoy a lot of book work and keeping track of things.

The public accounting sector is supposed to record all the transaction. I think that corruption in these sectors is also one of the main reasons why many countries struggle as well. The governmental officials tend to be involved in corruption and this leads to bad debts in the long run.
