• Answer:

  A business looking for a "general office admin" will not pay $25/hour. That salary usually is paid to a high level Executive or Administrative Assistant with at least 5-8 years (give or take a few years) of experience. Those are also the people usually asked to get lunch, do special projects, computer work, deal with clients. General office admin is someone to file, copy, answer the phones, greet people in the reception area and that's pretty much it. You will be paid anywhere from $8 to $12 an hour. Closer to $8 if you don't type and just answer phones and file. Depending on if and how fast you type, if you know and how much you know ab out computer programs, you will be paid more and more. To get experience being a receiptionist or an administrative assistant, you should sign up with some temp agencies. They usually have computer tutorials free to you to use to learn how to type (or to practice to get your typing speed up) and learn new computer programs. You should expect to have to learn Microsoft Office Word and Excel. If you know PowerPoint (which is a very easy presentation program) you will be paid even more. Good Luck
