Hi everyone,

I'm in need of hiring an assistant for my business, someone to help in the office as well as the day of the weddings.  I would like to put a job posting out and I'm not sure what I should be writing for a job description/job requirements.  What do you look for in resumes that come through that would be a good fit?

I would love any assistance/suggestions from any of the wedding planners out there who have experience with this.  Thanks for your help!

Linkedin as several wedding organizations where you can post job requests or you can go to www.bridalassn.com and www.afwpi.com - that way you are getting someone who is really interested in the industry.

 

What you would look for in a resume would be strong organizational skills, attention to detail, reliable, strong customer service skills, maintaining vendor relationship and computer skills wouldn't hurt either

If you live near a community college, they often have students who need to do some kind of internship.  Natalie Bradley of http://www.brideattraction.com has advice on this topic in some of her programs.   She is great at teaching wedding professionals how to market to brides and how to "work smarter not harder!"
Thank you ladies, very much appreciated!
Kelly - I haven't talked to you in about 2 years.  If you need an assistant, then I have to assume that your business is booming!  I hope you are doing well.  Stay in touch, Christine

Christine,

Has it been that long??  I remember our first conversation!  Things are going very well, just trying to figure out this job description/requirements thing.  How's biz for you?
