You’ll be close to the celebrity lifestyle but may not experience the glitz and glamour that comes with it. Your tasks will not always be glamorous, so be prepared to do anything your celebrity boss tells you to do--in whatever small amount of time they give you to do it! Your celebrity employer will want to be your first priority. Make sure you’re able sacrifice time with your family, pets or significant other before looking for a celebrity PA job. Learn how to keep your cool under pressure and time limitations, and get comfortable with solving problems at the last minute. You don’t have to be a professional event planner to get practice organizing people and services. Arrange parties for your friends, social events at your job, or help plan a family reunion or wedding.

The more tech skills you can offer them, like website management or graphic design for their lifestyle blog, the better. Create a personal website or blog for yourself, or volunteer to make one for a friend. Study popular celebrity social media accounts and start using similar tricks in your own. Practice sorting your emails into folders and creating neat, organized calendars. Be able to handle anyone from the snootiest celeb to their social climber friends. Practice being patient, using good communication skills and dealing with anyone and everyone with a polite smile, whether that’s at work or with a not-so-favorite family member. Work as an administrative assistant or in customer service and complete your tasks efficiently and with a positive attitude. Experience as a nanny or as a personal assistant to a non-celebrity will give you an idea of what the job requires and land you relevant references. Include all the skills and experiences that a celebrity could want for their personal assistant. Emphasize your organization skills, customer service ability, and capability under tight deadlines.
