We are building the most ridiculously talented executive assistant team out there, and we’re looking for those who strive to share their unique skills, talents, and extraordinary level of care with us.
Think you’d be a good fit?
As a premium company, our clients expect their Boldly executive assistant to be highly experienced as well as able to bring a personal touch and high level of care to their support every day.
Years of experience are a given — so what can you do to make sure your application stands out?
Let’s dive in!
1. Read Through Boldly’s Career Pages
We know there’s a lot of information on these pages, but it’s all there to help you decide whether Boldly will be a long-term fit.
Our strongest applicants have typically read through:
- Boldly’s Must Know FAQ page
- Boldly’s LinkedIn page
- Boldly’s podcast
- Boldly’s client pages
A solid understanding of the position you are applying for will guide you in making informed decisions about whether the role is right for you. We want you to fully get to grips with the opportunities available and see if your qualifications are a great match before you take the time to apply.
So before you fill out the application, please read the careers page in full, including all of the Must Know FAQs.
2. Understand Our Experience Requirements
Our minimum experience requirement is 7+ years — but it doesn’t stop there.
Boldly’s hiring team will be looking for specific, high-level (think C-Suite or equivalent) executive assistant experience like:
- Extensive travel planning
- Executive email inbox management
- Complex calendar management
Tailor your resume to clearly and simply reflect how your skills and experience align with our hiring requirements. Don’t forget to include the dates of your employment!
General administrative experience as part of another job will not qualify.
High-level executive assistants do far more than basic admin work. Our ideal candidates have had years to hone their skills to make confident decisions on behalf of their executive and create smooth, trusted partnerships that boost productivity.
We’re looking for professionals who can transform support into strategic collaboration.
3. Check Your Spelling & Grammar
Boldly’s business is built on care and trust, and that starts by getting the details and first impressions right.
Small typos really add up — especially to our high-level clients!
- Spell Boldly correctly. (You wouldn’t believe how often we see ‘Boldy’!)
- Have a friend or family member proofread your resume and application before submitting.
- Use grammatically correct complete sentences with proper capitalization.
- Look for missing punctuation, misplaced apostrophes, or other common typos.
- Use a computer to submit your application rather than a mobile device – autocorrect is not your friend!
4. Show Care In Your Application Responses
Your application is your opportunity to showcase your experience, attention to detail, and what makes you an outstanding fit for our team.
Our hiring team looks for both a strong resume as well as an application that reflects thoughtful care and consideration. Both of these elements help us understand your expertise and how you approach your work.
More than just qualifications, we want to hear about you. There may be many reasons why you want to work for Boldly. We get it—we’re great!
But what is it about Boldly’s unique culture and way of working that resonates with you and your life? What makes you a great fit for our team?
Use your application to share your story—we want to get to know the person behind the experience!
5. Be Original Without Relying On AI Tools Or Templates
There’s a lot of advice out there on how to use tools like ChatGPT while job searching. Although AI can be a powerful tool, we really want to hear why you want to work for Boldly.
Our team manually reviews applications (not a robot or machine), so it’s very obvious when candidates have copied and pasted directly from AI or a template.
Instead, here’s what we recommend:
- Use AI or a template as a starting place, then take the time and care to add your own personality, originality, and creativity.
- Or just write your own authentic, individual response from the heart!
Taking the time to personalize your response will truly help you stand out.
6. Update Your LinkedIn Profile
We believe your LinkedIn profile is the cornerstone of your online professional presence, and it should showcase your areas of expertise and experience.
Before submitting your Boldly application, please make sure your LinkedIn profile is well put together. First impressions matter, and this is your opportunity to showcase your experience and how it aligns with our requirements.
And then, when you apply, make sure that the link you provide in the application is a working one. If you copy the link from your web browser, test it to make sure it goes to your profile page before submitting your application. You’d be surprised how often this isn’t the case!
