When I interview for a job I interview the person interviewing me and try to get a feel for whether we will work well together. Good boss, bad boss On one interview I went on, when I met the two men who would be interviewing me, I met the first one and thought, "OK, so he seems like a nice man and I could work with him."

You would be surprised at the amount of errors I have seen in this very important first introduction to a company. If you get an opportunity for an interview you may as well go and try it. Be prepared in the interview with your own questions too. I always like the interview to be a conversation, with both sides talking.

Administrative assistants do more than just assist with the day-to-day activities of a company – in fact, for most employers, they’re Person Fridays without whom nothing gets done.
