Office clerks provide administrative and clerical support for their employers. In this role, you work in an office setting and may also serve as a receptionist at the entrance of the office, greeting guests, and notifying staff when they have visitors. Specific job duties vary, depending on the industry and company you work for, but general responsibilities typically include answering and directing incoming phone calls, filing documents, completing paperwork, making copies and scans of documents, and entering information into the company's database. You may also conduct research for other departments, manage office supplies and order more when necessary, and handle incoming and outgoing mail.
