Coordinate with other PAs to find meeting slots across diaries.

You'll need

Available for the odd early start or late finish
Discreet with board, salary and legal information

Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 6 working days.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

Mention a problem you solved before your boss knew about it; that story wins PA interviews.
Expect practical tests on Word formatting, Excel and minute-taking, so brush up on styles and tables first.
