please share your experience in being an executive assistant or a similar role
While I haven’t been an executive assistant before, I’ve supported senior staff in fast-paced environments through my roles in student leadership and internships. I’ve managed calendars, coordinated meetings, handled sensitive information, and kept projects on track, often juggling multiple responsibilities at once. I’m organized, quick to adapt, and confident in my ability to support executives with professionalism and discretion.

How do you prioritize tasks when supporting multiple executives?
When supporting multiple executives, I would prioritize tasks by first understanding what’s most time-sensitive and impactful for each person. I would stay organized using a shared calendar or task list, communicate regularly to stay aligned on shifting priorities, and break larger projects into smaller, manageable steps. If any conflicts came up, I would flag them early and ask for clarification so I could adjust quickly and make sure everyone gets what they need on time.
