How can get an office administrative position without experience?
Asked by Ana S
I have a college office administrative certificate from several years ago. I have not worked at that field. I have worked odd jobs like food services, customer services but not office administrative. Please don't send me any spam.

Best Answer:
Visit an employment agency - take a skills test to see what your strengths are. Try to identify the areas you are weak in and what you think you have to contribute. Definitely get smart on Word, Office, Excel etc - you can do this from home. also get registered at your local workforce agency and take advantage of all the workshops they offer. Don't put too much expectations on online job boards - you need to physically apply and sell your strengths. Customer service/public contact might be a field you could intitally pursue. Working one-on-one with customers is valuable to most companies.

Job seeking can be a tough job in itself, especially if you're not used to it. I was struggling with my job seeking in recent times until I discovered the site in the box below website which has some really awesome tips for job hunters. After using their methods for a short while I secured myself a really awesome job.

A piece of paper does not give you the actual experience that is needed to start at the top of the ladder. I would apply for any office job that require your skills. Sometimes jobs titles can be misleading.
