Who you supported, and how much

The scale of support is the headline. Who (CEO, a team of 40, three partners), what (calendar, travel, board packs, expenses), and how complex:

Manage calendar, international travel and quarterly board materials for the CEO; coordinate 30+ meetings a week across four time zones.

Show judgement, not just tasks

Executive assistants are trusted with priorities. One line about a decision you made or a problem you prevented sets you apart:

Rebuilt the meeting-request process, cutting the CEO's weekly meeting load by 20%.

The skills grid

Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint), Google Workspace, calendar and travel tools, expense systems (Concur, Expensify), minute-taking, CRM. The checkbox grid reads quickly — list ten at most.

Typing speed and certifications

Include typing speed only if the posting asks. Certifications such as CAP or a Microsoft Office Specialist belong in Certifications.
