Job Duties
Working as an administrative assistant in any office setting is a fairly typical place to begin a career. Whether you’re looking for office or corporate work, administrative assistants will perform the same basic tasks regardless of work environment. The position almost always require you to work with reports and spreadsheets, answer phones and take messages, and coordinate between different departments inside your individual company. Hotels are always looking to hire motivated workers to perform these tasks and other office functions.
Job Qualifications and Compensation
While this job is technically entry-level, many applicants have a year or more experience working as an administrative assistant. Many hotels prefer applicants be over 18 years old, possess a high school diploma or equivalent, and have extensive organizational skills. Administrative workers are typically expected to be familiar with hotel staff and procedures, faxing, and general business practices.
These are the most basic qualifications, though. Certain abilities will set you far above other applicants. Many receptionist positions require typing a specific amount of words per minute, proficiency with computer programs, like Microsoft Office and Excel, and excellent customer service and communication skills. Additionally, administrative assistants will have to be able to work in a fast-paced environment and may be required to proofread documents for other hotel employees.
The average pay depends on whether you’re working in a hotel office setting or in corporate offices. Depending on your employer and your work history, your average starting wages as an administrative assistant will probably be between $10 and $15 an hour. Employment perks will vary by hotel, but most employers offer full-time workers benefits packages, including paid time off, healthcare coverage, hotel discounts, and a 401(k) retirement plan.
