How To Succeed In Your Office Support Role

Of course, we want to do well in our new roles, but it isn’t something that happens overnight. Even if you have vast experience and the necessary skills, transitioning into a new position will likely pose challenges that might take a little while to overcome.

The good news is that this experience is common, and the professionals at MJD Recruitment have brought in their skills and expertise to help you on your way to becoming your business’s newest office support superstar. We recommend you:

Multitask.

Being able to show you can multitask means you can get your tasks completed quickly and efficiently.

Communicate.

Operating in full transparency means you can keep a healthy, open communication between you, your coworkers, and your employer.

Absorb everything.

Employers value quick learners, which is why it’s essential to try and absorb as much information and as many skills as you can.

Learn the ins and outs of the industry.

Understanding what the industry does and how it operates puts you above the rest. (Yes, that includes researching competitors).

Ask questions.

Employers want you to follow the correct processes and procedures. Don’t leave everything to guesswork. So if you aren’t sure about something, ask.

Folder.

The interviewer might provide you with documentation or other tangible bits of information so take a folder to your interview so you have somewhere to store it.

Answers to common interview questions.

Interviews can blindside you, but having answers to those common questions ready means you’ll enter the interview prepared.

References.

Bring a list of references to your interview. Make sure your referees know to expect a call or email from your potential employer.

Portfolio.

If you’d like to present anything to your interviewer, prepare it all in a neat portfolio for them to peruse.

Pen and paper.

Taking notes means you’re engaged and keen to learn about the organisation. So bring a pen and pad to your interview to really stand out.

A positive attitude.

This seems like a no-brainer, but a positive attitude and smile goes a long way — all the way to a job offer.
