Our marketing team needed help with executing their social media
plan to attract and engage customers. I enjoyed helping schedule and
write the messages as it exposed me to a new area of business —
marketing. It also allowed me to exercise my attention to detail and
communication skills, which impressed my teammates.
Indicate to employers that you can see the bigger picture and anticipate
changes. Then, show them that you can and already have adapted to that
change through your skillset or work history.
4. In your opinion, what are the most important skills that a good
administrative assistant should have?
Yes, I have. I was the executive assistant for three members of our
executive team. To keep up with delegated tasks and give each
executive ample support, I dedicated portions of my workday to each
person. This ensured that each executive felt cared for everyday.
However, if a priority task did come up, I would address it promptly so
deadlines were met.
General Job Interview Questions
Regardless of the position you are applying for, there are some general
interview questions that employers love to ask. Next, we’ll walk you through
some of the common job interview questions and how to answer them.
This question tops the list as it is usually the first question asked by
interviewers. When sharing your story, showcase your past
accomplishments, strengths, and past work experience while also relating
your story back to the requirements included in the job description. But
avoid sounding too technical or rehearsed. Employers also want to get a
sense of your personality.
I’m from a small town in Wisconsin, but attended college here in the
Twin Cities. After receiving my associate’s degree in business
administration, I worked as an administrative assistant at a local law
firm. While there, I really honed my organizational and time
management skills, which I feel make me a great candidate for this
role.
Simply put, employers want to work with people who want to be there and
have good reasons behind their interest. This question is your chance to
provide them with those answers and show that this opportunity is one you
really want.
I’m looking for a role that is a little more challenging because it will
allow me to learn new things and progress in my career. I think this
role will provide the growth I’m looking for.
9. Tell me about a time you made a mistake. How did you handle it?
This question can be tricky because it’s a behavioral interview question and
it makes you focus on a time you failed. To answer this question
successfully, show how you were able to bounce back and correct the
mistake.
