How do you prioritize your work?

An office assistant must handle many responsibilities to keep the office organized. When the hiring manager asks this question, they want to know how you stay organized and manage your time.

Provide examples that relate to the responsibilities you will have as an office assistant. Explain how you prioritize your responsibilities to complete your daily tasks.

"At the end of each day, I review my schedule for the following day so I can mentally prepare. I have a daily checklist to make sure I complete administrative duties, such as filing and database entry. I attend several meetings and email the minutes to all attendees within three hours from the end of the meeting."
