Practice the questions your administrative assistant interview is likely to ask

How it works

1. Add your resume and the job. Paste the text or add a PDF or Word file. The file is read on your device and never uploaded.
2. Get your IQ Briefing: what the role actually needs and where your experience fits.
3. Practice: each set has 6 questions, including 2 technical know-how questions for the role. Want more? Ask for 6 more.
4. Get honest feedback on each answer, then try again in your own words. Speak your answer if you prefer (in Chrome).

Sample technical know-how questions

Reading a list is a start; answering out loud and getting feedback is practice. A few examples of the know-how administrative work interviews often check:

1. How do you manage a calendar for someone with back-to-back meetings across time zones?
2. Walk me through setting up a shared spreadsheet so several people can update it without mistakes.
3. Which tools have you used to schedule meetings and book travel, and how do you double-check the details?
4. How do you check the data you enter for accuracy before it goes out?
5. Two leaders ask for the same meeting slot. How do you decide what happens next?
6. How would you organize shared files and folders so the team can find documents quickly?
7. How do you prepare an agenda and take minutes for a team meeting?
8. Walk me through how you track and process expense reports or invoices.
9. How do you handle confidential documents and emails?

Examples only, written by BrightseatIQ. In the app, your 2 technical questions in each set are built from the job posting you add, so they will be different.

Your resume stays with you

Your sessions are saved only in your own browser; we don't keep a copy. To create your briefing and feedback, the text needed for that step is sent to our AI provider with your name and contact details automatically removed first (best effort). How we handle your data
