1859 test--and she must wait

seems a low average until

Qualifications
What sort OF secretary is
1t that takes the examina-
ton? She must be at least
rs years old and have had
three to seven years Of Sec
retarial experience.
She must furnish refer
ences. personal and business.
and show that, regardless Of
job title. she actually does
secretarial work. This phase
Of qualifying requires the
employer to answer a ques-
tionaire on the actual duties
of his secretary. Does she
frequently sometimes, never
take dictation and transcribe?
arrange travel? report meet
ings? compose her own COR
reSpondence? write reports?
prepare graphs? From the
answers to these questions
energies a picture of secre-
tarial responsibility, or Of
stenographic work with only
a few added duties. Again, no
one secretary is expected to
perform all the duties listed.
When the secretary clears
the hurdles of qualifying for
the examination and pays the
necessary fee, her real work
begins.
