This is timely, because I'm interviewing for a summer office assistant later today. Basically, the qualities we're looking for are:

Pleasant personality
Cool under pressure
Able to prioritize tasks
Ok with being held to a high standard of accuracy
Master tasks quickly

Our office assistant last year was a dream. She was pleasant, handled everything quickly, efficiently, and accurately. She even caught some of our mistakes and politely brought them to our attention. Plus, her attendance was flawless - she was on time every day and never took a day off. Basically, she was perfect! Good luck with your internship!
What you're asking for is the minimum for anyone who has a job isn't it? Who would hire someone with bad attendance?

We hire from a pretty impressive pool of candidates. Of those candidates, I expect them to do everything I say and to stay out of my way otherwise.
