Aside from that, I use it for many reasons, but largely, I want to have my resume online so I can connect with people and have them learn about me should they so desire. LOL I don’t divulge because I don’t have any and it’s not good to gossip. Everyone should have a LinkedIn account for the online viewable recommendations alone.

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. The problem that sometimes occurs with sharing with current co-workers is it can turn into office gossip. Having the opportunity to hash it out with another assistant is a great resource.

On The Job

DECEMBER 28, 2009

Your resume should always be able to reflect that you’ve kept up on the latest training and skills. Always look for ways to expand your horizons and be able to show an employer how you faced a challenge and learned. Don’t gossip at work. Update (or build) your resume. Be the dumbest person in the room. Take the high road.
