A Career As An Administrative Assistant

I am open to new challenges within the higher education profession and am willing to work hard to reach my goals. I am a self motivated and an excellent team player who enjoys working with students. I work well under pressure and understand the importance of time management.

I managed to earn my Associates degree within the two-year time frame goal that I set for myself. I work as a part-time Senior Accounting Clerk at Tarrant County College and initially had the idea to just receive my Associates and work my way up. I soon learned that in an educational system you need more than just your Associates. So I decided to further my education with a Bachelor in Business Administration. I have always imagined myself being my own boss, creating something I love and watch it flourish. Although I have learned a lot during my time here at Tarleton State working towards my Bachelor’s I want to get to know Business more. I want to be able to learn the many different sides of it from the international aspects to the least minimal detail. From what I have heard is

Academic advising is counseling provided by a university representative, usually a faculty member, to assist you achieve the goals of your education.

I am certified residential real estate appraiser and have my own company in Bay Area for the past 10 years. Getting a degree in Business Administration was a part of my long term goal to become an Appraiser General. So far, I plan to proceed with my goal; however, shortly after graduation I have received several attractive job offers that tempt me to change my plans. The degree definitely opened new avenues in my career.

I have fourteen years of administrative experience. My goal is to continue in this field as either an executive administrative assistant or as a corporate secretary. I have experience in both positions, but experience and networking does not always grantee me a job. A degree in Business Management would allow me to further my career.

As an Administrative Coordinator, I mastered the overall support of the senior executive in everyday fast-paced office operations process and project implementation cycle. I proved myself productive in maintaining strong and fruitful relations with clients, partners and other stakeholders, generated new development deals and brand expansion and solving technical issues. With exceptional attention to detail, conflict resolution, problem solving, negotiation skills and time management I comforted groups of different background, providing space for business engagement and relations with various industries, dealing with local and foreign businesses of different scope. One of the results of our teamwork is 1000+ students, due to high interest,

I knew that I wanted to go into the field of business after my first year of being involved with FBLA. I participated in various competitions and discovered that I excelled at them. After researching various career paths that were available in this field and after careful person reflection and examination I decided that I wanted to use my leadership abilities and obtain my degree in Business Administration. Through time I decided that I also want to become an accountant. I based this decision off of personal experience with an accounting course and a financial course. I discovered that I enjoyed this specific aspect of business and together I plan to obtain my Bachelor's of Science in Business Administration with an Accounting emphasis. With

As I was doing job shadows and researching other careers, I realized that education was still in my blood. I wasn’t sure if teaching was the right spot for me, but how could I leverage my degree and skills into a position at an educational institution? The opportunity arose to become an administrative assistant in a higher education setting. In a way I felt was a moving backward, but I will tell you this: I loved that job. It incorporated my strengths and skills and also provided the opportunity to absorb my surroundings, make new friends, gain a new perspective to what higher education really meant, and pursue a Master’s

In College, I made a decision to take Business Administration Majoring in Marketing and Management. I believe that i possess the skills which are needed in every successful businessman, the passion, determination, curiosity, creativity and communication skills are one of my skills and expertise

In 2010, I graduated with my associates degree in Computer Networking Systems. After the completion of my degree, I went to work for a small pediatric clinic to help implement a new Electronic Medical Records. I stayed working for the company for 10 years. During this time, I seen many employees come and go and the company had a hard time finding good staff. This is when I realized that I would like to pursue a degree to help organizations like this one find great staff that will love what they do and provide quality service. With a Bachelor’s degree I felt I would be able to pursue my goals and increase my changes with finding better employment along with increasing my changes for growth personally and financially.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve had an interest and a passion for technology, computers, and graphic design programs. If you did not own a computer back then you were not “cool” according to my friends. As soon as we were able to afford it, we bought our first computer. I remember being so exited when my parents brought it home, but I also remember ruining the computer a couple of times with viruses until it went officially out of business. Before I killed my computer for ever and ever, I could say I learned how to write in microsoft word, but I never paid to much attention to excel because I thought I was not going to need it. I was wrong! Today, I work as an administrator assistant. I could say that learning to manage programs like word and excel helped me tremendously in my career. I also work as a graphic designer, but only as a freelancer. Practicing, getting familiar with the computer and with a better antivirus I was able to learn and use my computer for school, to communicate with family, and even learn more about my own computer. Today I am very familiar with different operating systems, word processing programs and presentation programs as well. One of the things I would say it is a priority to me is to memorize terms. I learned how to write a letter on the computer before, after a while I learned that the program I was using was a word processor program. I knew how to use it but did not know how was it called. I believe I still have a lot of terms to learn, that

I’m a student at BMCC and I have an interest in Accounting. I graduate this semester with my Associates of Applied Science degree in Accounting. The reason why I’m in this field is because I always enjoyed numbers as a kid and accounting may be the best route to a successful business career because accounting has always been considered as the language and basic tool of business. I also feel the demand for accountants appears to be growing and exceeding job opportunities in today 's business economy. Accounting opens doors in every single kind of business all around the world. It can give me the establishment I need to go on and become a CPA. It also can prepare me to become a potential partner in an accounting firm, to follow a career in finance or corporate management, to maybe work in government, or even to become an entrepreneur when I choose to retire. I feel no matter what I decide to do in life, having an accounting background can open opportunities for me. I also would be giving the opportunity to meet a diverse range of backgrounds such as coworkers, cliental and mentors. My older brother graduated from Monroe College with his associates in accounting. He ended up having kids and never progressed further in his accounting career. Being aware inspired me to want to work harder to progress to accomplish my goals.

When I graduated from high school, I was admitted at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I enrolled in the School of Business. My major was Accounting. I did so to please my parents and what I thought would be the best fit. I was not very happy, and I must confess that I was bored to death. After two years of studying something that I did not like, I changed my focus to School of Social Work. I was taking elective classes in Social Work/Mental Health Counseling and realize that this field held my interest and really represented how I viewed myself and the world. I was out from College for 5 years. Working with the Department of Social Services and numerous nonprofit organizations. For the last 5 years I have been working as a Social Worker for Department of Social Service Child Protective Service Investigator. I actual love my job because it is customer (client) oriented and I got to practice my counseling skills indirectly and directly with my clients I encounter on an daily

I currently do not have a clear idea of what career or even business field I want to work in. I am double majoring in Financial Management and Accounting to help maximize my career opportunities and flexibility. I do enjoy accounting but I am not sure I want to take the public accountant route which will force my life to revolve entirely around work as a result of the long hours and high replacement rates. I am taking my first finance class this semester, but I do not have enough experience at this point to know what part of finance I would enjoy pursuing or even all of the areas of finance that I could explore. With this uncertainty, my primary goal right now is to continue to perform well in school and graduate in May, 2017. At that point, and depending on my current job position, I may pursue a Master’s Degree in the 11-month MBA program at the University of Colorado Denver’s Business School. I hope that between my experience there and my GPA I will have a foot in the door and better chances for success. Until that point, I will continue to improve on the qualities which have been working on my whole life – confidence in my abilities outside of the classroom and willingness to take risks and new ventures.

Business and Commerce is the most appropriate choice for me. I have decided to be enthusiastic in this field and let the innumerable opportunities enter my professional life. I dream of being a successful person and make my family proud but to achieve this goal I have to struggle, work hard and experience new things. Business Management will
