Yes I see that problem and in the best case it would not be renouncing their beliefs not to wear something where it is not appropriate, but there are many other beliefs or reasons where one is excluded from official office/army, etc.
Similar to the original meaning of this post.
Many countries forbid people to enter the military and similar office, if they are known to hold extreme believes (e.g. extreme right wing rhetoric has been used by them or such). Not always foolproof though
I think you are correct as it is now. And I do agree, as it is right now it is not practical to be completely secular for people holding these offices.
However, ideally, these groups would not need the recognition in this way as they ought to already have it otherwise and understanding that at some places some things are limited, should not discourage them to believe in what they want.
I would say ideally not as they represent the state and thus should not wear iconography of any sort for secular states.
I also know that this might not be exactly practial in reality
for a lot of people that is asking them to renounce their religious beliefs in service of the national interest
