### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little PA & admin bible!
*by S***0 on 23 May 2023*

I absolutely love this book! As someone who is over a decade out of practice and fairly inexperienced in the PA and secretarial game, this book has provided me with some fantastic, much-needed knowledge and tips from somebody who *really* knows her stuff. I love how thorough it is in covering things like diary and meeting management, too. I would absolutely recommend this book, particularly to those who haven't yet stepped into the world of office admin, but are looking to do so. I truly wish this book had existed when I left school!
