Executive Assistant Resume Bullet Points
Executive assistant bullets should show level of executives supported and scope (board, travel, projects). This guide gives you examples for EA roles.
Bullet examples
- Supported CEO and CFO; managed complex calendars and travel for 2 executives. Coordinated board materials for 6 meetings per year.
- Streamlined expense and travel process; cut processing time by 40%. Trained 3 new EAs on company systems.
- Acted as gatekeeper and liaison for executive office; handled sensitive communications with strict confidentiality.
- Managed executive communications and draft responses; ensured timely follow-up on 50+ weekly items.
Impact formulas
- Level + scope (e.g. 'Supported C-suite of X; managed Y')
- Process + outcome (e.g. 'Streamlined X; reduced time by Y%')
- Responsibility + discretion (e.g. 'Managed X; maintained Y')
Lead with level of executives and scope (board, travel, projects). Use discretion and confidentiality as keywords. WadeCV can help you align your EA experience with job descriptions.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Vague 'supported executives' without scope
- Omitting board or high-stakes context
- No evidence of discretion or judgment
