What should a company secretary resume include?
Employers hiring company secretaries in India want proof of ICSI membership, hands-on Companies Act and SEBI compliance, and familiarity with MCA V3 filings. The strongest resumes list the types of meetings, filings and corporate actions handled, the size or listing status of the company, and any audit, inspection or notice closed without penalty.
Skills recruiters look for:
- SEBI LODR compliance
- Board and general meeting management
- ROC filings on MCA V3
- Secretarial Standards SS-1 and SS-2
- Insider trading compliance (SEBI PIT)
From our sample resumes:
- Pooja names the exact forms she filed, MGT-7 and AOC-4, and counts the companies, which proves real ROC work rather than general exposure during training.
- Arjun’s rights issue bullet shows size, stakeholders and end-to-end ownership, the kind of corporate action a listed company’s board wants handled without surprises.
