Office Assistant Interviews

Office Assistant Interview Questions

"Office assistants serve both employees and customers by supporting operations, troubleshooting, and maintaining supplies. During an interview, employers may ask about your interest in their industry, competence in word-processing programs, and your personal skills that you can bring to the company. In addition, be prepared to talk about how you work under stress or handle conflict within the work environment. To ace your interview, come with an enthusiastic attitude with a real deal desire to help others."

4,372 office assistant interview questions shared by candidates

Currently, there is an on-going, active recruitment specifically targeting college students or graduates and interns. No front receptionist available on site. Location was difficult to find since it's a small room enclosed by curtains located btwn a restaurant/bldg and bakery. A table was set up in front with interns/candidates all typing away on a bunch of laptops. A couple of guys were having lunch in the back. I asked a couple of prospective candidates who were also present for their interview. They pointed me an empty back room with a large projector and a few chairs. Apparently, a slide show gets shown to candidates before the initial interview. The presentation has a monotone narrative that makes it more confusing when it repeats the same continuous bitcoin process. Basically, key words are thrown in there along with mathematical distribution that makes the whole bitcoin presentation difficult to absorb. At the end of slideshow, the program/deputy director asks a pool of candidates-what they think about the presentation? Overall, I just had a bad vibe from this place. It felt like the recruiters neglect their candidates by weeding out the ones they don't want through a series of tests: wasting time through presentation, sitting, fiddling with the laptops in the front. Be prepared to sit for awhile before anyone is assigned to do an actual interview. Any prospective candidate that is prepared for an interview will be lost in this maze.
