5 Pros and 5 Cons Of Being An Executive Assistant - Should You Make The Career Change?

Thank you! What about EA at Mckensey?

Another con would be the lack of career advancement. Being an EA is kind of a dead-end role and the work can be super overwhelming and underpaying considering all the work that you have to do. I worked as an EA for two years during college and the experience made me never want to go back again.

I would say that at least in the healthcare systems I've worked for, in order to apply for an EA position you must have a master's degree or a bachelor's and 10+ years of experience.

Could you recommend a good short online administrative assistant courses? That could give someone who is starting out an introduction to the field

Haha you're so pretty and positive. Thank you for the video. It was pleasant, crisp and informative. May success and prosperity attend you always. Regards from India.

Funnily enough, everyone is really nice to me coz they know one word from me to the boss and they’re goners. 😏

Thank you for making this video, I’m doing the same thing, thinking of making the career change, mostoly because of the stable schedule.

Hello! I am considering becoming an EA. You said no college degree was needed. Just experience… are any certifications needed? What all do I need to know? If you already have this video I’m sorry. Thank you!!

Have you ever thought of being a personal EA to a multi-billionaire who would treat you as the special person you are? Billionaires are looking for top notch intelligent people to manage their properties, vehicles, meetings, problems, service appointments, etc. Pay would be twice what you are currently making, plus a luxury car / suv, and possibly a place of residence if you become someone they can't survive without.

I am about to have a job like this. Could you tell me around how much money should I Accept?

The last point is of great benefit. I've been an EA for 5Months and I confirm it.

Thanks for your wisdom and vulnerability in sharing, Sarah! Your video deserves to reach more people.👏👏👏

Love your energy, new sub here❤

Can you share tips on staying organized and just overall good in the role? Thanks!!
