What is the job of an executive administrative assistant like?

Is it like a customer service department, but not as busy. Will I be doing a lot of paperwork? Online searching for the best flights?
What do exec. admin. assistants really do? Please be detailed in your answer. It will really help me decide on a career path! Do you think this is a bad career path?

A lot of this depends on the boss. Some bosses use their assistants as just that – assistants. They have decision-making authority, they may have some budget responsibility, the run meetings with little supervision, etc.

Other bosses favor the "administrative" part of the title – filing, scheduling meetings, reviewing and sorting snail mail/email, screening phone calls, making travel arrangements.

It is a career path that can get you a lot of exposure to top management, but it is not a path that provides for a lot of advancement – once you’ve been exec assistant to a sr. VP or company president, where else can you move up to?
