Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

DECEMBER 18, 2013

After only 2 weeks, I found a great company through a staffing agency and the position was full time working for a wonderful CEO. The staffing agent asked if I was open to temp to perm, even though the position was for a full time EA, he feels the CEO may need time to see if it is a good fit. How long do you think is fair?

I work at a travel and event planning agency. Believe it or not, while some EAs do hold tremendous power, because travel is a very expensive and uncomfortable aspect of business, many executives or companies are very specific on what is or isn't allowed and which airlines they will or won't fly. Then I call and email every vendor.

I'm an EA to the President and CEO of a North American marketing agency that is growing rapidly. When we were a smaller agency, I was the EA and Office Manager for a smaller facility.
