I was out of work, temping here and there for a year. It is good to be employed, but what if you are in the process of looking and just can’t find a job?

And whilst I know in my own head what needs to be done, spelling it out for others in a step by step process is not as easy as it seems. That needs to come from you and from your understanding of the business (which you should always be learning). This really is the only way you’ll learn. No one can tell you that.

If you know the interviewing process is going to drag out another three weeks because the final decision needs to be made by the CEO who is currently fishing in Alaska -- then say it will be at least three weeks before a decision is made.

1) I’ve always found it extremely helpful to be and communicate that you are experienced, but willing to learn, be humble, and fine with doing the mundane tasks or dirty work. I mention how I worked for all my CEOs because I was recruited away as a temp. My goal as temp was to be asked back as a temp repeatedly - that’s it.

As you become more established and learn to network well and brand yourself through social media, you'll find that headhunters and recruiters will call you in hopes of poaching you. As you are job hunting, think hard about if you want to temp, freelance, do contract work, temp-to-hire, or direct hire roles only and under which circumstance.

The shortest route is to look for temp work thru agencies or TaskRabbit, Craiglist, or volunteer. Be honest you understand the paycut and why it doesn't bother you at the appropriate time in the interview process. Learn to answer why being an EA appeals to you more than any other job. Network 2-3 degrees out for opportunities.

Other jobs, because they were temp to full time, I didn’t even have the benefits of paid vacation time or paid sick days for almost a year. It always perplexes me when small companies do not hire a temp or have in mind another staff person to fill in for the admin or EA to go on a vacation or call in sick.

Whenever I meet people for coffee or a meal, I am always interested to learn about them as a person and their work. I love doing informationals because I like learning about what people do, even if I am not in that industry, and perhaps get an office tour down the line, and make a new friend if they introduce me to someone else.

Nice to read about your writing process in-depth. I saw E.Gilbert’s TED talk shortly before I learned I suffered from Bipolar Disorder and what she said resounded so true it was scary.
