A useful starting point
Show the principal, the diary load, and discretion. Two pages for senior PAs. Skip office-manager vendor lists if that was not the job. Skip this if you want EA-to-C-suite and have only team admin — use administrator.
These examples illustrate structure, not a real applicant’s history. Replace every sample detail with your own evidence. Follow the employer’s instructions on qualifications, registration, document length and file format.
