Definition

Class Characteristics
Administrative Support Specialist I -- This is the entry level class in the Administrative Support Specialist series providing general office administrative support for an organizational unit. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Administrative Support Specialist II level, but are not expected to function with the same amount of program knowledge or skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or patterns. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise.
Administrative Support Specialist II -- This is the journey level class in the Administrative Support Specialist series providing the full range of office administrative support for an organizational unit. Positions at this level are distinguished from the Administrative Support Specialist I level by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, applying well developed program knowledge, and exercising judgment and initiative. Assignments are performed with the expectation that incumbents have the ability to choose among alternatives in solving job problems and work productively in the absence of a supervisor. Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise, and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. Employees at this level typically apply specialized program knowledge to self-direct the administrative, secretarial, or clerical tasks that are essential to the accomplishment of the unit's desired services or products. Work is normally reviewed only on completion and for overall results.
