kittencapes Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Hi does anyone work as a PA? I am getting some experience at the moment and wondered if it is likely to lead to a well paid career? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayxe Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Just look in the ad papers for evidence. Some PAs can earn massive amounts. But you have to be good. Guardian always has PA jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millman Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 PA's can earn a good wage, it depends which sector you look at. Higher up in the public industry is well paid, as well as being a PA for a private Director. You need to be the top of what you do - not only do you need a great memory, you also need 100% knowledge of the company and you need to know all those little tricks in computer packages like Outlook and Word, and especially know how to make a document look good. You also need nowadays to have some knowledge of computerised diary management. I am a senior receptionist but have done PA work in the past. As long as you are prepared to 'go the extra mile' and be forward thinking, you can make an impression that will translate into potentially higher wages.
