The New Professionals Programme Group 2016 of International Council on Archives have distributed the questionnaires through a variety of professional archival websites, organizations, and social media platforms. The participants are 845 new professionals from 5 continents and 12 regions all over the world. The results showed that the job satisfaction of the new professionals in the world is at a high level, but there are some factors that restrict the improvement of their satisfaction; in general, respondents did not get enough professional training and support; most of the new professionals focused on particular areas of expertise, with corresponding training needs; they would get professional guidance and help from all kinds of professional groups. The results also demonstrated that there are some differences between Chinese new professionals and respondents from other regions in the degree of education, the willingness of job change, the enthusiasm of the professional organization, and so on.
