Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

SEPTEMBER 11, 2012

I have tried to research what the next level(s) up is, I can't seem to find any information. Do you by chance know what it takes to get up there? Sincerely, Anonymous” Dear NK, Thank you for the great question and btw, your wording of it was great! :) No need for me to “pretty it up!” I was wondering about career path.

Tell us your story on how you went from temping in LA to being the EA of high-profile CEOs. I found every single one of my jobs through a temping agency or by referral. I learned through informational interviews that I should apply to temp agencies. I opened the phone book and signed up with every single one in town.

I was stressed out from the pace of work and also the length of a couple of special projects with a long lead time. We also get a mini break when our boss is traveling as the stress level is generally lower and we can catch up on our workload. A week or two ago, it was one of those weeks where my brain just felt tired.

Would hate to pass up this leadership opportunity if it could mean progression for me in the future. Why do I bring this up? Do you want to manage people or actually do the work? The amount of skill, pressure, stress, and problem solving differs at each of those levels. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
