My top tip is to write everything down as you are told it and then feed it back to the person telling you so you can make sure you have understood it. This way you never need to ask the same question twice. I get a hardback notebook, number the pages and write everything in, leaving a couple of pages for contents.

I'll treat you to a second top tip as you're new at this:  don't panic, just be polite and say you'll get back to people. Use the phrases 'may I...' and 'Please would...'.

And always proof read your letters before taking them in for signing. Calculate the time that takes into the time you estimate the job will take. Spelling mistakes are visible errors your image can do without.

Best of luck!
