Grow & learn; read, talk to mentors, attend training or a conference, watch webinars, etc. One full-time job and a few temp positions came after that one. If you are going through a change right now, especially professional change, that you don’t quite feel in control of, reach out to mentors, friends, and others.
The goal is to go from a busy role to one that is absolutely crazy insane busy and stressful to prove you can do it. Even asking to intern, shadow, or be mentored by someone well respected is a great first step. This is one of the main reasons why I endorse temping and working thru recruiting and placement agencies.
I hated the mental stress and burden of putting everyone else first and getting only the usual thank you’s and words of appreciation. I mentored other younger assistants. I started this blog while temping/job hunting and I was allowed to write or do personal side projects as long as it was not interfering with my work.
Sign up with the major job hunting sites with your resume and profile, join social network sites geared towards work, and meet with every temp agency in town just to be safe. The amount of skill, pressure, stress, and problem solving differs at each of those levels. How can you make yourself easily found? And once you're in, you're in.
And as I was working, job hunting and/or temping, I had to find other sources of happiness. Reduce the stress and annoying things in your life to maximize your happiness. This was mostly as a temp during very slow months when the entire industry was on vacation, but I’m sure the paycheck wasn’t as amazing as yours.
Tell us your story on how you went from temping in LA to being the EA of high-profile CEOs. I found every single one of my jobs through a temping agency or by referral. I learned through informational interviews that I should apply to temp agencies. So I left that temp gig and went to work for the CEO.
