DEFINITION
Under general supervision, provides a variety of office support for an assigned program, department, or division, which may include word processing, data entry and organization, telephone and counter reception, document processing, mail processing, record keeping, and filing; provides information and assistance to students, faculty, staff, and the general public; and performs related duties as assigned.
SUPERVISION RECEIVED AND EXERCISED
Receives general supervision from assigned supervisory and managerial staff. Exercises no supervision of staff.
CLASS CHARACTERISTICS
This is a first working-level class responsible for providing clerical support to an assigned program, department, or division. Incumbents learn the policies, procedures, and methods of the assigned program, department, or division and perform office support duties, including document preparation, record keeping, compiling and organizing information from various sources, screening phone calls and visitors, processing incoming and outgoing mail, and directing questions to the appropriate staff. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied and are performed with greater independence. Work usually fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained as they arise. Eventually, positions will attain a level of experience to receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and where they are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. This class is distinguished from the Administrative Assistant I in that the latter performs more advanced customer service, administrative, and office support duties requiring additional training and/or experience and a deeper understanding of programmatic, departmental, or division-specific rules, regulations, policies, and procedures.
