Office Assistant was a good job for a college student. Easily could have been a full time position though. - Office Assistant Senior Helpers Employee Review

Pros

HR experience. I interviewed, hired and scheduled all new employees even though I hadn't had any experience with any of that.

Cons

There were few cons. I sometimes had to work past my regular hours and it rarely felt noticed. It's usually very busy or very slow, so sometimes it'll go from not having much to do to being overwhelmed.

The owners are great. The management is very supportive.

Pros

Get to meet wonderful people. Get to see into peoples lives, and treasure getting to know them. Ask questions, get to hear about how they got to where they are, what their philosophies are, their life stories, their advice. The opportunity for connection is limitless.

Cons

Dementia! I learned to love working with dementia patients but be warned if it's your first job with them. Don't take what they say personally. I wish someone had told me that before my first position. It's not about you. It's about them. Second! Beeoches. There are so many old ladies you're going to run into who are BEEOCHES. Don't be afraid to tell the bossman that I'm sorry, this isn't a good fit. I was too afraid to say something and ended up staying with a little old lady who was H-E-DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS to work with for two years. Former CEO of a company. Beeoch! Stand up for yourself. If you don't know how, this job will teach you. You'll learn a lot about yourself if you don't know yourself very well!
