if a employer was to employ a secretary,what certicate should they have if they have no experience?

Question

what skills, how important in MYOB in this position? And what other certificates?

Answer 1

Definitely at least an associate's or 3-5 years of office/clerical experience. Secretaries usually need really good skills at everything and tons of patience.

Another office-type job I would recommend is a paralegal. They have schooling for this. It's quite a bit of work like a secretary, however, you get paid really well and the job stability is excellent. Lawyers need paralegals. You can come out of school and expect to make 30-50 K working for a medium-sized law office

Answer 2

These days there are few secretarial positions. Because of computers, many businesspeople do a lot of their own correspondence and such. There are, however, administrators who organize and help with clerical duties and compiling of information. I would say that demonstrating skilled use of the most frequently used computer programs (such as Excel, PowerPoint, etc) would be the most important thing.

Answer 3

You will start out as a receptionist, then do a clerical helper job before you will get a secretary job. Secretaries have a lot of responsibility, and need usually 5 years office/clerical experience. They make pretty good money sometimes also.

Answer 4

Certificate from a secretarial school
Computer,Shorthand,English

Answer 5

Office administration for one.
Or business management is good also

Answer 6

mostly be able to give a good BJ!
