QUESTION 3 OF 30

How do you keep all of your tasks and projects organized?

"While earning my undergraduate degree, I learned a great deal about time management and how critical it is to track projects, along with the estimated hours required to complete a project. To keep track of my tasks and projects, I will use my calendar and keep electronic to-do lists. I will time block to ensure that all of my projects get the attention they require."

The hiring authority wants you to walk them through your process for keeping yourself on track and organized in the workplace. As an Administrative Officer, you are responsible for managing your tasks but also project components that directly impact others. Take some time to discuss the tips, tricks, and tools that you use to keep yourself organized and on target.

"I am a big proponent of time blocking and utilizing my calendar to keep my days and expectations organized. I use tools such as Google Calendar, and Slack to keep myself and my team on deadline. Every morning when I arrive at work, I review my day to make sure that I can meet everyone's needs and expectations. If I need more time to reach a deadline, I will stay late to ensure that my daily targets are on track."
