What is it like working as a Personal Assistant?
April 2014
Very good and I am learning alot.
Personal Assistant:
Pros: It has helped me be organized and plan my time well.
April 2014
Busy But Fun!
Personal Assistant:
Pros: I like that you start your day having an idea of what you are going to do and that can change the minute you walk in the door as you are faced with different scenarios. I like being challenged and kept busy but also making my boss's day run smoothly.
Cons: When things don't go according to plan or if you are let down at the last minute.
April 2014
My Colleagues.
Personal Assistant:
Pros: I have a very strong working relationship with my colleagues.
Cons: Inflexibility with working hours (not the case for anyone else)
Making tea/coffee!
March 2014
Personal Assistant.
Personal Assistant:

Cons: The Directors are disorganized and have poor management and communication skills.
March 2014
Everyday Is Not The Same.
Personal Assistant:
Be assertive and mean no when you say it. You can't please everybody all the time. Always be polite and courteous and never let anyone know your personal business as this could be used against you in your performance review. Be honest all of the time.
March 2014
I LOVE IT MY PURPOSE IN LIFE IS TO BE OF MAXIMUM SERVICE.
Personal Assistant:
Pros: EVERYTHING.
Cons: NOTHING.
March 2014
Experience Gained.
Personal Assistant:
Pros: My job may not come with many perks but working here, I have met so many good people passionate about their career paths that have taught me so much. I keep learning new things everyday and right now the experience for me is great.
Cons: The management, I feel like I'm in a concentration camp most of the time, we are always being watched and we are not allowed to take unscheduled tea breaks. There is no freedom, its non-stop work from 07:30 to 17:00.
