Working to deadlines is crucial in this sector - you’ll often be under time constraints and have people depending on you to have tasks completed in a timely manner. Accuracy and attention to detail are also qualities employers look for in a good administration candidate. Successful administrators are good at making sure they don’t miss anything.
