Check the job listing to see if the company requires a degree; some will and some won’t since executive assistant roles vary. Always list your highest education first, and if you’ve obtained a higher degree, there’s no need to add your high school education. Keep in mind, though, that even if a company asks that you have an associate’s degree, for example, that’s not necessarily a deal breaker. Use your resume to show how your executive assistant experience qualifies you to meet the specific organizational and planning challenges of the role.
