I think that whilst a job title shouldn't matter, I do believe that there are still some people out there who treat people on what they're called. I'm PA to a CEO and I've had an admin assistant from our other office call me and ask me to help her arrange something because the external person's PA isn't being very cooperative and could I give it a go and see if I can get a response. As soon as I've called up and said who I am, that PA has bent over backwards to be helpful.
It's left a bad taste in your mouth when you realise people behave like it and it makes you wonder if you want to be that helpful in return.
I'm called a PA by my boss, but his partner calls me his EA. I think it's more each company has a different idea of job titles but in reality it's the same job.
I wonder at times if some companies use Admin in the title to try and avoid paying as much as they would if it said PA or EA.
I'm perfectly happy to be called a PA as that's what I believe I am.
