The current economic development is quite developed in Indonesia, but the development is not in line with the development of existing public accountants, so there is still a lack of public accountant resources. Because more and more who want to work as a corporate accountant. The population in this study were final year accounting students at state universities in Jakarta. There are 160 samples in this study. The research period occurred in 2019. The method used to select samples in this study was purposive sampling method. The statistical method used to test the hypothesis is multiple linear regression either partially (t-test) or simultaneously (F test) with a significant level of 5%. The results showed that all variables studied (income and professional training) both simultaneously affect the interest of accounting students to work as public accountants. Limitations in this study are only in the Jakarta area and only for state university accounting students, further research can also increase the number of samples and also multiply universities as the population under study so that they can better reflect the actual state of students.
