Personal Assistant

For many high school graduates, college is a way to get ahead, but going to college is not the only way for young adults to succeed. Many people choose to enter the workforce after high school to start earning money and gaining experience right away. These motivated young workers can have rewarding jobs without ever having to earn a 4-year college degree. If you're interested in helping others and don't know that you want to—or can—go to college, a career as a personal assistant might be for you. Young people need only a high school diploma or equivalent to start as a personal assistant, and they can eventually earn more than $50,000 a year. In Personal Assistant, you'll learn how to start a career as a personal assistant and what you need to succeed in the field. Find out about the prospects for these careers in the future, how much personal assistants can make each year, and whether your path to success includes a career as an assistant.
