Decrease of Filing clerks, General clerk positions...so what can you do to get emploeyed without experience?
Asked by trobop
2 years ago the newspaper ads and temporary agencies often had Filing clerk, general Scanning clerk, or things like that. But recently there isn't any of that. I'm guessing cause those responsibilities are now included in higher level positions so that your administrative assistant will do his stuff and also the filing part.
I'm just a simple person with filing skills , general office skills and computer skills but i'm no professional at anything, also i have problems with speaking. So if those type of basic jobs are now disappearing in society, what can inexperienced people like me do? I would settle for minimum wage jobs if i could live with that but that's not possible
To the 2nd poster: i already know those. I have alot of computing experience. But administrave assistant positions don't fit me cause you have to be all BUBBLY.. and i'm not. i'm the reserved quiet type

Best Answer:
could you take a class at your local high school at adult education to learn how to excel or another program? The more you know, the more likely you'll be to qualify for an administrative asst type job yourself.
I don't know where you get the "bubbly" thing from- maybe if you're a receptionist that would help. We have a new admin asst- she's got a quiet personality- amost to the point of being dour- and she's viewed as being professionally aloof. But whatever!!

look for data entry input jobs. they pay decent and there are still plenty of them available with temp agencies.

Where do you live? I am in that type of job and when I did find a job, OfficeTeam did call me for a job last April, but I was already working. So, I don't know where you live, but the agencies in your town stinks. Last year when I was employed at the Federal reseve bank, they called me twice. Once in April and anotehr time in august. it isn't that they have it, but they do get it from time to time. You can try OfficeTeam.
