Summary/Abstract: The analysis of the examples illustrating positions and promotions of employees of offices and registries in war and treasury chambers leads to the conclusion that junior officials in the state administration in Prussia at the turn of the 19th century were a diverse social and professional group. Its representatives were not of uniform origin, they did not have the same social status, moreover they had different educational background and preparation. The position of an official depended not only on his skills, knowledge and diligence, but also on family and business connections or favouritism.
