Are you a patient person? When has your patience really shown in the work place?

"Patience is necessary in any setting as a personal assistant, especially with so many things happening at once.

Often times, we rely on other people to get the work done and this can cause delays. With patience, I manage this by setting expectations around communication and offering assistance wherever possible."

Absolutely! Being a Personal Assistant requires patience and grace, and the interviewer needs to hear that you are a patient person. Afterall, it is your job to alleviate stress and create simplicity for another person's life. Being a patient person is a must! Begin by telling the interviewer that you are a patient person, and you understand being patient is a must in order to facilitate personal assisting services for your clients. Then, share an example! A great example might include a time when a client was having a hard time making a decision or was frequently changing their mind. You might share how you patiently allowed the client to have some space to process their decision and happily went along with their request when they were ready.
