Job Description

The Special Assistant’s Mission is to Decrease operational Friction for the chief executive.

The nature of the chief executive’s scope is inherently broad; consequently, the special assistant must be a generalist— able to ASSIST in a broad range of areas.

Successful special assistants can Quickly Study and acclimate to new areas of operation. The chief executive might be preparing reports or a talk on accounting and payroll, for example, and the assistant must assist the office of the chief executive by collating sources for the talk or presentation— this is just an example.

Another example might be that the chief executive might be involved in a project that requires processing big data— perhaps thousands of profiles of prospective team members for a new office—; this consequently might call for a simple bot or some macros to be coded; special assistants are trained to assist in some of the more rote coding— in this example.

Social Interface

As one of the social interfaces of this chief executive you will play several roles and functions including but not limited to being the chief executive’s Ambassador, being an Explorer or being an Investigator, or simply being a basic Representative. These roles are each definitively unique and trained on internally at our offices.

Technical Assistant

  • Simple Data Encoding
  • Programming and Coding
    • Configuring ingrations (managed services)
    • Interface applications via APIs
  • Hardware
    • Assembling workstations (mostly Windows 10 workstations; some Linux)

===

Remember that you do not have to have any stock knowledge on any of these topics; remember that the only requirement here is aptitude, some potential, an open mind, and most importantly, the willingness and conviction to challenge yourself to learn new things at a faster and faster rate, at the start of every new week!

===

Mechanical Assistant

  • Wood-working
  • Light electrical work around the office (lights, light switches)

Digital Media Assistant

  • Photography and videography; film editing; social media content
  • Creative writing: fiction, historical fiction, essays

Executive Assistant

  • Business writing
  • Scheduling appointments

Personal Assistant

  • House staff management and training
  • Errands

Minimum Qualifications

Due to these minimum requirements being so qualitative, the interviews and hands-on tests in these areas are quite extensive and ultra-dimensional.

Soft Skills Core that can be developed

  • Verbal communication
  • Written communication
  • Interpersonal skills

Technical Aptitude that can be developed

Example test topics include:

  • Workstation assembly (mostly Windows 10; Linux and other operating systems may be brought up during the interview); BIOS configurations.
  • Software: Macros, Visual Basic, C++
  • Managed Services: APIs, Webhooks

Cultural Compatibility

  • Science and Academia
  • Trade and Industry
  • Contemporary Arts

---

From day to day your assigned areas will vary drastically. For example, you literally might assist the chief executive on a woodworking task, then some low-level software programming, then at the day’s end, attend a business development exploratory meeting with the executive. Due to the broad range in activities, we test for aptitude and potential, not stock knowledge. Remember, though, we are not hiring carpenters and software engineers, we are hiring people that can be trained on-the-job. Again, we are not hiring for stock knowledge or work history (experience): we are hiring for aptitude and potential to grow (and grow Fast).
