I hear managers or Human Resource Professionals say it doesn’t take any special skill to be an administrative assistant. I hear it from both sides of the desk. I hear assistants talk about their job or the profession as if it is no big deal. These people are naïve, to say the least. A true Executive Assistants must do over 100 things well.
