Hi all, does anyone know of any recruiters or hiring managers that work in Affirm Inc. I've been applying for a couple of jobs with them . The role I have applied for I know lam a extraordinary fit for
100% and can help the company/ department succeed. I have a good deal of experience with this role and would love to talk to a recruiter or a hiring manager more about this. If anyone
could reach out to me if you have any information on that I would greatly appreciate it.
Can anyone here give a referral?

For me, it was taking minutes in meetings that could’ve been an email. I love supporting teams, but not when it feels like we’re documenting for the sake of it. What task makes your day drag a little slower?
Lmfao.....I also hate that....I my mind is be like ....Really ?... Then they hear me speak and I redirect quickly before it drags on....lol....
I would say phone calls. I know it's a big part of the job, but phones always give me tons of anxiety. Even though I've made probably thousands of calls as an administrative assistant at this point, the phone anxiety never goes away!
Surprises for me!....Lol...It's like im answering calls faxing....emailing...Venders...permits...tenants....it's when they know you can have to pull a rabbit out of a hat with overtime and no one wants it....ugh....Thats it for me....But I get it done trust that... Thats part of my responsibility...So yeah surprises and then I have to do it all myself...Example: contractors do a half ass job then I get stuck with the tenants anger and complaints which is totally fine with me for i would be too...lol....And that varies depending on what type of work was done....painting...plastering...doors...kitchen...floors...windows...locks....you name it and that's just why we get great pay....Have a great one.
