I don't think you should go for the Company Secretary course. It would be better if you try for the college lectureship through the National Eligibility Test. You have completed post graduation which is necessary for college lectureship.


You should have mentioned your age in the question. If you have crossed 30 years then please do not apply for the Company Secretary because majority of companies prefer young freshers for this job. This is I have witnessed myself.


Anway you should know the responsibilities of the Company Secretary. This course focuses on the Corporate Law therefore your role is to ensure company is following all the regulations. Company Secretary advises Board of Directors and Chairman of the board on various issues.


There are primary three stages in the Company Secretary course. Since you have completed graduation, you don't need to appear for the first stage. Take direct admission into the second stage of Company Secretary course. Below is more information about the course.
