This is our final episode of the PA Podcast and this week Olivia Coughtrie and Auria Heanley, our Co-Founders answer a selection of questions they regularly get asked. In this episode, we cover tips for interview, what to wear, how to negotiate a pay rise, the career path of a PA, the biggest frustrations as recruiters, how to layout a CV, why we set up the business and so much more! We get asked these questions daily, so we wanted to provide as much useful information as knowledge is power!
