Flexible.

Administrative Assistant Is A Great Starter Job.
Administrative Assistant:
Pros: Variety, jack of all trades, using technology, working with lots of different people, learning a lot of new skills and tricks, being able to leave work at work, feel like my job helps people.
Cons: Hard to break out of the box/transfer to other job roles. Sometimes viewed as lower than others, rather than a partner.

The Good and The Bad.
Administrative Assistant:
Pros: Flexibility, Low Stress, Manageable, medium pace.
Cons: All at once, sudden addition to work.

No Room For Advancement.
Administrative Assistant:
Don't pigeon hole yourself as an Admin Asst to the point where all your employer sees you as is an Admin Asst. This results in no room for advancement.
June 2014
More Knowledge Of District Hospital Rules For Board Meetings.
Administrative Assistant:
Keep a log of all your activity. Save all business emails for a record. You never know when you may need to refer to it.
