According to our data, these jobs take approximately 45 days to fill. Administrative Assistants positions, however, have a much shorter posting period, averaging just 36 days (*or just over five weeks). Job postings that stay up the longest – or which are immediately reposted following the job ad’s expiration – indicate a perpetual need or a difficulty to fill. That’s a good thing for you.
