Default so I have a job interview next week

I am a bit nervous about it. i havent had a job since summer of 2003. Its an administrative assistant job in marin county. I hope it goes well,
I worked as an admin for 3 years so im sure I can do the job its just the writing thats got me worried. I cannot use my right hand to write due to my stroke, so if the job requires it then im SOL :hs: but I didnt want to disclose that info about me till the interview me so we will see how it goes..

Admin assistants usually write in addition to typing. Good luck either way.

good luck. The best advice I can give you is to think of a way you can do your job without writing. That way if they ask you about it you will have a solution ready. This will not only allow you to do the job but having a solution to a potential problem before it arises will make you look like a very promising employee.
