Wouldn't it be ideal if you could take one set of skills, and utilize them to build the perfect career for you? But what if you could go further than that? What if you could take that single career, and work virtually anywhere you wanted? Is this imagined situation sounding appealing yet? It's about to get better. What if it was not just a fantasized dream, but a realistic option? And what if it were open to you?

Administration jobs are not only widely available, yet they are also solid, stable careers. It is the perfect job on so many levels, and it may be just right career for you. The knowledge and skills needed to advance in this career are basic, and much of your training will be at your specific workplace.

There are many job openings for people that possess secretarial or clerical skills, and you could easily become one who benefits! Administrators are needed on so many separate fronts and in so many different settings. There are school administration jobs, plus openings in a variety of offices—doctor, dentist, other physical specialists. There is a growing need for administrative assistants and clerks in government agencies; both in federal and state capacities. Large businesses and companies also need support from competent administration workers. Administration jobs are a very flexible career choice, mostly because with the same set of skills and knowledge, you could go in such completely different directions. Examples of this are school administration jobs compared to becoming a secretary in a large company. Another example is government work versus the doctor’s office. Really, there are so many options! You can choose to make this work become a simple job or a real career. If you have ambition, you can go far in administration management.



Location is yet another bonus that comes nicely wrapped with this career choice. Huge cities obviously have more employment options and openings, but finding a job in a smaller town would not be overly difficult. Why? Because administration work is absolutely everywhere!

Perhaps one of the best specific careers to make in this fast-growing field is becoming involved specifically in Clerical Administration. Those that choose this particular work make about double the salary of a secretary, and they do practically the same things. The salary would be around $41,000 yearly.

What would you be doing, exactly? A wide variety of things, obviously—but we’ll try to pin it down. You would more often than not be dealing with accounts and budgeting. You would largely be in charge of a company’s communications—both outgoing, and internal. You may also deal with reception duties, and most likely work with filing documentation. The computer will become your best friend, if it isn’t already.

So what do you need to know? What skills must you have mastered? What type of degree do you need?
You will need to have knowledge of basic office equipment—from the pen to the keyboard, the stapler to the fax and copier machines. If you do not know how to manage these devises, you will definitely need to have another skill—the ability to learn quickly, and efficiently. Mastering these particular skills is crucial to your success.

As far as degrees go, there is no specific one required. Degrees in communications, minor accounting, business—all of these would greatly help your chances of employment, but don’t agonize over it. While a degree would help your chances of acceptance, the ability to learn new skills will take you higher than almost anything else.
