With the development of social economy, the demand for secretarial talents is constantly improving.

Their work has extended from document information pmission to information collection, collection and refinement, from daily activities to internal communication and coordination.

This requires the Secretary to grasp many aspects of knowledge and ability to support.

Because of the characteristics of the post, the female secretary has been occupying a considerable proportion.

Among the hundreds of working women who receive careers from career counseling agencies, the number of secretaries has reached 41%.

Among these female secretaries, 67% were over 30 years old.

出镜人物：Cynthia女，31岁，某外企中方总经理秘书

Cynthia graduated from the English major of a famous university in the north.

After graduation, he has been working as a secretary in Shanghai.

Although the company's treatment is pretty good, there is always a sense of urgency.

She doesn't want to be a secretary all her life, but five or six years later, she still can't find any chance of promotion.

Seeing the promotion of her classmate's promotion, married marriage, she is still single now.

She wanted to change her career, but she found that she had no other skills in addition to administrative affairs.

Seeing that it was already in its prime of life, Cynthia did not know how much youth she could wait for. She walked into the Xiangyang career consulting room without career direction, hoping to get help from CCDM career planners.

The case of Cynthia is very representative, reflecting the inner confusion of "30 year old female secretary".

Most of them want to have a broader platform for their development.

But suffering can not be clearly defined according to its own characteristics. The future career development is indeed worrying.

CCDM career planners concluded that their confusion revealed three characteristics of the Secretary's job.

一、潜在的年龄界限

Although some people have been occupying this profession for a lifetime, the secretary still has the characteristics of being younger than most people.

Looking at the secretarial positions of today's enterprises, 80% are occupied by young women.

This is closely related to the attentive and thoughtful features of the secretary.

The reason why young people choose this occupation is to go easy, and two is also hoping to prepare for future development.

Once the secretary is over five years, and no chance of improvement can be seen in the future, there will be confusion and confusion.

As in the case of Cynthia, age is an alarm for her.

二、缺乏专业技能

Although the requirements for secretaries are constantly improving in modern society, the secretary is after all handling general skills such as daily things and personnel communication without any professional knowledge background.

Once you want to change, it's very difficult.

This is also one of the troubles that Cynthia has encountered.

When I was in college, I majoring in English, but she found that many young new employees in the company were very good at English. Besides, they had other professional backgrounds, so Cynthia was very envious.

Looking back at Cynthia itself, because her profession is no longer her advantage, and can not accumulate experience in other fields in daily work, it shows her trend of degradation of strengths and abilities. This is also the common predicament of many "30 year old secretaries".

三、易被新人代替

Cynthia: "green is better than blue."

The young people in the company are really fierce, and my posts are easy to cut, which makes me very stressed.

Cynthia's words reflect the shared voice of the secretary.

If we do not pay attention to knowledge training and professional improvement in the process of secretarial work, we will only lose our ability in social competition and cause our academic credentials to deteriorate.

The workplace is like sailing against the current.

When the 30 year old female secretary loses her age and ability, her worry will follow.

Competition is fierce and new people are coming forth. This is a social necessity, and the social environment can not be changed. For every professional person, it is the only way to improve their ability as much as possible.

As the scroll says, "all problems, depression and sadness are the God of opportunity to disguise themselves."

Career planners point out that the idea of "opportunity" is also used in the field of career planning. Every confusion and distress is a sign of a new start in career, just a look at how you should grasp it.
