Hi Gabby,

You may want to take a look at our Executive Assistant Resume for an idea of what to include in your resume. We also have a great article on How to Be a Good EA and a very extensive E-book for EA's entitled, The Effective Executive Assistant. All of those resources are free since you are already a member of OfficeArrow.

Hope it helps!

Hi, Gabby.

You may also want to look at contacting your local IAAP (International Assoc. of Admin Professionals)chapter to determine if you can find a member/mentor that is currently an EA working in the type of firm you are hoping to join.

Best of luck to you in your search.

Hi Gabby,
Keep in mind that any of us who have held the position of EA, began our career as a receptionist, administrative assistant, and in my case a secretary. It is important that your resume shows progression, growth and added responsibility during your employment. Focus on your accomplishments. Try to avoid writing a "task oriented" resume.
