Do you prefer to complete admin work on your own or as a part of a team?

The interviewer wants to know more about your personality and how you interact with others in the workplace. They are also looking to gain insight into your level of self-motivation and independence. It's essential to show that you can work in a variety of environments since Admin Assistants often float between independent and group tasks. You might work very well on your own without the need for much management or direction. Or, perhaps you prefer to work as part of a group to achieve a common goal. Discuss the way that you collaborate on projects while highlighting the fact that you are flexible.

"I work well on my own whether I am doing an independent project or in a team environment. I enjoy the community of my team, but I can be successful whether I work on my own or with the support of a team. In my current administration role, I spend about 60% of my day working independently. In the afternoons, closer to the end of the day, is when my collaborative work generally takes place. I sincerely enjoy that time because I like to learn from others while being a contributing member of a team project or goal."
