Accountants Feature in the Oscars – Not the Way You Might Think
Accountants are participants of the Oscars not for the awards but they are usually in charge of counting the ballots.
Of course, accountants also participate in preparing the accounts of the events, but not many would picture these professionals actively engaged in the showbiz space.
Since 1935, the Oscars has been engaging accountants in the vote counting process, making them the first to know the results before anyone else.
