The job of an assistant is often dependent entirely on what the boss or senior administrator needs that day. Unfortunately, this can sometimes translate to junior workers getting stuck with unpleasant work passed on by higher-ranked people. Patience and the ability to multi-task are extremely important skills to have, although an assistant must never accept abuse or mistreatment in the workplace. It is very important to have an exact understanding of the rights and requirements of any job, to avoid any confusion.
Another set of administrative assistant skills necessary in many jobs is familiarity with common office machines. Scanners, fax machines, copy machines, and multi-line phones are all normal parts of the office landscape. While a new assistant cannot be expected to know how every make and model of machine functions, a basic knowledge of how these important tools work can ease the training process and give employers confidence in a new worker's ability to lean quickly. In order to pick up these skills, individuals should consider visiting a local print or copy shop and asking for a basic explanation of how the machines work.
Working as an administrative assistant can be fun or tedious, depending on the workplace, coworkers, and personal attitude. While it may not be a worker's dream job is to be an assistant, smart employees will still treat the job with respect and as a great opportunity to learn. Having a great attitude is more likely to get employers to want that person around, which can lead to faster promotions and better jobs.
