Receptionists are the face of a company

Receptionists also offer administrative support, redirect phone calls and coordinate front desk activities for a company.

Secretaries are professionals who fill integral roles within companies. Because they are often responsible for various company tasks, secretaries must possess administrative, communication, customer service, technical and problem-solving skills.
