Hey and thanks for the video! Just got invited to an interview and I was also wondering if you've got some tips or common questions to prepare for?

I have just been hired as a PA. A role i am moving halfway across the country in less than two weeks. The moment I got off the phone, the doubt crept in ‘Do i know what I’m doing? Am I qualified enough. Is anyone else in this boat?’ Then I saw your thumbnail and then your Avatar poster and knew you were my new senses as i transition into this HUGE ass role

Hi! Thank you so much for the helpful video! :) I was wondering if there is a degree required for this job? I graduated with my associates and have be roaming the internet, just looking at some jobs and I do know and see that many jobs require a bachelors degree for consideration😅
