xo, Melissa I very recently made the decision to leave a role without another one lined up. The gentleman on the call introduced himself as a consultant with a well-known local staffing agency who had reviewed the resume I had uploaded to the organization's website. If you haven't done so yet, follow her on LinkedIn ! You are welcome!

One of the most surprising things for me was to learn that not all companies will give you an expense account or a company credit card. This adds up to thousands of dollars and it usually takes at least two weeks to get your money back. Or I could mail in the money. Or you may find you need a money order or traveler’s checks.

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. Would hate to pass up this leadership opportunity if it could mean progression for me in the future. Why do I bring this up?

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. Any suggestions?
