With the woes of the economy and unemployment reaching record highs in the last several years, times are tough, and there seems to be no bright light at the end of the tunnel; but there is. Searching for a job can be one of the most frustrating things a person can do and sometimes the search can be so tough you want to quit. Quitting would be the easy way out, but if you continue searching, you will find the right job that meets all your needs. One of the most important keys to a successful job hunt is staying positive, if you been rejected one hundred times, apply for the hundred-and-first time. There is a possibility you might have to relocate for the job. If this happens be sure to research everything there is to know about your new city. If you have kids, find out what types of schools are available, what houses and apartments are affordable to you, available recreational parks and facilities, and so on.

Human resource administrator (HR) positions and executive administrator positions are very common among companies, and the qualifications/skills for these vary depending on the nature of a job. Companies want the best and brightest to work for their companies, so competition for HR administrator and executive administrator positions can be high. What do human resource administrators and executive administrators do?

First, an HR administrator is a general term most companies use to describe someone whose duties are to aid fellow employees in work performance, to develop training programs, and to increase morale, trying to enhance the overall performance of the work done by the employees. Working with people is an extremely important aspect of the HR administrator. Also, an HR administrator can interview new applicants and handle employee benefits. They have a finger on the pulse of the work environment in the office and make sure everyone is being productive in the best possible way. It is sometimes very difficult for the upper management to be aware of how well performance and morale is in the office; this is where the HR administrator comes in. Especially if the company is fairly large, a human resource administrator is a vital part of the success of the company. Many HR administrators start out in an internship or on a temp basis while still in school. Having ''human'' in the job title makes companies want to make sure you are compatible in working with others.



The salary of an HR administrator depends on a number of factors: level of experience, company size, location, and qualifications/skills. The average salary for an HR administrator is around $55,000. The higher level upper management human resource administrators can make upwards of $140,000. The salary is affected by work in a private or public firm. Most companies offer a base pay to start with room for advancement to earn more.

An executive administrator is an upper-level management position which is responsible in overseeing multiple department managers who handle a specific department of the company. ''Executive administrator'' is a general term for other, more specific, types of administrations such as school superintendent, a vice president of a company, and others. One of the major jobs of the executive administrator is making sure policies and procedures are carried out and followed by the lower-level management. In relation to an HR administrator, an executive administrator must be aware of any problems or concerns the HR administrator is having and ensure the HR administrator is performing their job to the best of his or her ability. An executive administrator can also be a member of a board of directors, depending on the size of the company. This board of directors oversees, with other upper-level executives, the policies of the entire company, making sure they are being followed on a daily basis.

Since executive administrators can manage many other employees beneath them, the productivity and overall performance of these departments can greatly affect their jobs as well. The administrators’ job is to bring out the absolute best in their workers; failing departments can result in the executive administrator being reprimanded or even terminated. If the human resources administrator has poorly performing workers, it is the job of the executive administrator to understand why this is occurring and to resolve the problem. The management of employees under the administrators results in their success, which can lead to promotions, raises, and benefits not only for them but for the company as well. This is a very stressful job that sometimes requires working weekends and nights for the administrators to be able to run an effective administration. While the executives have the big offices and tremendous views, there is a lot of hard work put in.

Executive administrators have to be willing to travel to other companies and meet with other executives. Average education for executive administrators is a bachelor’s degree in business, but, depending on your area of interest, the focus of the degree may differ. The educational process continues with additional training programs to advance within the company by learning of new policies and procedures. Since there are many different types of executive administrators, education will vary depending on the job requirements.

The average salary for an executive administrator is around $75,000 and can range up to $150,000. These are very difficult jobs that require many hours and dedication, so the benefits of being a executive administrator are vast, though the price is high.
