I used to work with someone who was an assistant in the Human Resources Department of a major law firm and has now become the Director of Human Resources in that same firm. You should stay in the position for long enough to make what youve learned stick to be fair to yourself and the organization who hired you.

I have been on some interactive sites where assistants ask questions and get answers and I learn from them as I have some of the same questions. Lunch n learns are also a good way to learn from each other. Administrative newsletters or bulletin boards where you can post tips or suggestions is a good way to learn.

Having the opportunity to hash it out with another assistant is a great resource. I had a big learning curve going into it and I didnt know any of the other assistants so I felt all alone with my challenges. I often reach out to my network to get answers to problems that come up at the office or just to lend a sympathetic ear.
