What is Administrative Support?

[equant]

One of the jobs I’d like to apply for has a requirement of “A minimum of three years experience in administrative support is required.” I’m not exactly sure what is meant by that with regard to the position of Load Planner. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Not sure what they might be looking for on that one. I would think that anything that would involve paperwork or details to make your dept work would be considered administrative support. Customer Service, secretary, admin, support of any kind should be highlighted. Jobs with Office skills. Excel, Word, document writing. Jobs that would collect data. etc etc

Thanks for the reply, that’s sort of what I was thinking too, but I’ve never actually heard it called that on the job. I believe it was called “boring crap they make us do”. 🙂
