Personal Statement: A Career As An Administrative Assistant
I am a good choice for the team due to my varied background. Not only have I worked in the niche environment of a SaaS company concurrently on multiple Scrum teams as the QA role, but I have years and years of Administrative Assistant experience. Additionally, I also worked for many years in IT, so my skill set is wide. I'm a quick study and enjoy learning new things. I have a can-do attitude and don't frustrate easily. Being busy is my preference and I'm not afraid of multitasking or having a lot of "balls in the air" during a juggling act. I am able to see things from various perspectives and as such, feel I would be an asset to the development of OAMM. If given the chance you will not be disappointed!

    I would like to apply for Special Assistant. I work well with others, but am also self-motivated and can get things done without someone constantly reminding me what I need to do. I am the president of the Zero Waste club, and an honor student. I take pride in everything I do, and strive to go above and beyond what is expected from me. Working well with others along with good communication is a strong suit of mine. In soccer I am center defense (sweeper), so I have to tell the outside defenders who their mark is, and make sure the other team does not get past us. In tennis I play doubles, so I constantly communicating to the other player to make sure one of us has the ball, or to tell them that it is out so they do not have to work as hard.…

    Waking up in the middle of the night coughing and gasping for air occurred on a regular basis for me as a child. I slept with an inhaler and a nebulizer next to my bed in the event of the next attack. My asthma attacks were frightening for my parents and especially for me as I felt as if I was on the verge of death whenever I suddenly could not breathe. Although I was always in and out of emergency rooms and doctor visits at a young age, having tried everything from nebulizer treatments to bronchodilators, I was always comforted by the doctors and nurses who always took the time to explain and alleviate any concerns and anxiety I had. Seeing their devotion to their profession and for patient care has motivated me to pursue graduate study in the field of nursing to invest my future to coordinate and implement quality healthcare for others.…

    My punctuality, attention to detail, and people skills are what make me an excellent office administrative assistant. First of all, I hate being late to anything. I strive to be on time, or early, in appropriate situations. When I know that I will be unable to attend or have no control over being late, I am prompt to notify the individuals I am on my way to see. It is very rare that I am tardy to any scheduled meetings. Secondly, I strive to have an excellent attention to detail. Some would say I am a perfectionist with my work. I look projects over dozens of times before handing them in, and make sure that everything is up to my standard. I proofread very well, and I am usually the one people come to for editing advice. Lastly, I have wonderful…

The field naturally requires a lot of sensitivity, patience, compassion for people, and a willingness to learn, all of which are qualities that I have prioritized and have been diligently developing since my youth. My experiences as a personal assistant to my peers with disabilities at the University of Illinois and as a certified nursing assistant at Heartland Healthcare, and my interactions with seasoned nurses have exposed me to diverse communities and have helped me become more aware of the demands of this career. Despite the demands, I am steadfast on receiving the proper education to give the best care possible to those in need, especially those in…

    Ever since I remember I wanted to be the same thing my sister was. Everywhere I would go with her or talk about something I would always remember telling her that I wanted to be like her. As years went by and I started to grow up I started to realize that what she works on is not what I want to be I want to be a makeup artist or a chef. Ik that is what she was was a great job as well, but that’s not what I wanted to be anymore. I know that being a medical assistant is nothing bad it's just that that isn't what I want to do anymore it doesn't catch my attention. One of the hardest things I think I would have to tell her is that I don't want to be what she is right now. I think it's great that I want to become something different than her because…

    On Nov. 9, 2015 it was about five minutes till 11:00 P.M. and the girls from D2 dorm were really loud. The girls upstairs were running through the halls, yelling, pounding, and also blasting their music really loud. I wanted to log a complaint with your office, due to the fact that the noise in the dorms is keeping me from getting the rest I need and sidetracking me from really taking advantage of my training. I wanted to alert you as well as my Resident Assistant’s as to what is occurring so that I can be able to get the rest I need, so that I can be rested for receiving the training I need to be prepared for the job.

    The problem that I have chosen to write about is very personal to me. The problem I had was that I was not making enough money to survive on a monthly basis. I had a choice to either look for a job that paid better or go back to school. I began looking for another job but with my lack of a degree, I still wouldn’t be making enough to really have the life I want. I began thinking about school, but I needed to decide what I wanted to do with my life. I had spent my entire adult life as a wife and a mother and didn’t worry or think about a career or furthering my education. With my children all grown and on their own, and recently becoming single it was time to make a decision about furthering my education. I decided if I was going…
