 This growing ability to network, collaborate and socialize is making independent work more attractive, and 2012 will see the trend towards independent work continue to grow.    Most of these older workers will choose independence because of the stimulation, freedom and flexibility it provides.

Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

AUGUST 21, 2012

Thank you so much for taking up this blog. Six of these years were at a small, personal services start up, that I sold profitably, and the remaining four years were as admin support at two small businesses. Well, the educational field is dismal and I've given up on the teaching career. This experience spanned from 1997 to 2010.

The higher up you go on the ladder of admin roles, the longer your job hunt will take. 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. Your job hunt will take a lot longer.

First, what you have been up to recently that is exciting, fun or new, why and what sort of job you are looking for, and your contact information and an online link to your resume or a social media profile (more on this later). It is a way to catch up and keep the doors of communication open. That’s okay. That’s great.

Create an office bible In case you get sick, go on vacation, or get hit by a bus, it’s always good to have an office bible so your temp or co-worker can have info at their fingertips when needed. Also, take good notes so you don’t have to ask the same question even if something only comes up about 2-3 times a year.
