I have some experience as an executive assistant for mid-management, but I am starting to apply for jobs that support high level executives, such as CEO, Chief Counsel & managing partners. Keep in mind this most likely doesn’t mean you’ll get out of picking up lunch or making coffee on occasion.

JH recently wrote me and asked the following question, "With so many temp agencies out there, I don't know which is/isn't good. I was wondering if you could give me the name of the temp agency you worked with. The best strategy is to sign up with every single temp agency in town. Thanks so much in advance!"

For example, maybe if I needed car service, but my boss needs his morning coffee, you'll have the drive get the coffee at Starbucks for us first before pick up and charge us for it so my boss doesn't have to go in and wait in line. Call every single temping agency in town. Or maybe you go the extra step. 2) Personalize the experience.

On The Job

JULY 10, 2009

Rules for being a good hiring manager/interviewer: 1. Have a system in place to acknowledge that youve received a resume and/or cover letter when they come flooding in. And wouldnt the boss think it was just peachy if a rant turned up online from the candidate criticizing your behavior? When you post a job, be prepared.
