This is the perfect position for someone looking to enter the assistant profession. You will be assisting executive-level professionals in both their professional lives and sometimes their personal lives. Your job is to make their lives as easy as possible and to handle mundane or logistic tasks that will allow them to focus on more important things. You may be making flight and dinner reservations, scheduling meetings, or even buying birthday presents for their child. This is often a fast-paced and high-stress position so your ability to exceed under pressure and have a friendly demeanor is crucial.
