Claudine Barretto’s search for a “multitasker” personal assistant sparked lively discussions among netizens after the actress posted the job requirements on her Instagram on Wednesday, November 20, 2024.
In her post, Barretto detailed the tasks expected of the prospective hire, including managing her schedule, looking after her children, handling household operations, and even performing accounting duties. The assistant must also be prepared for sleepless nights, a requirement Barretto emphasized by describing the role as suitable for someone as “alert and multitasking” as she is.
“Better if yung personal assistant may experience din sa accounting, take care of the schedule ko at mga bata. Also, siya magpapatakbo ng lahat sa bahay namin & sanay sa puyat,” she wrote.
The demanding job description drew varied reactions, with many expressing concern about the heavy workload. One commenter suggested splitting the role: “I suggest po idol that you hire 2 people for this job… Ang personal assistant at accountant isang tao na! Ang manage your house to be clean and tidy at mga bata is a serious job.”
Another netizen quipped, “That’s so interesting. Personal assistant na pwede yaya for how many kids at puyatan daw. So that’s personal assistant, accountant, yaya at mayordoma in one person?”
Others questioned the feasibility of finding a single person to handle all the responsibilities. “Seryoso iisang tao lang for that job? Tapos sanay pa daw sa puyatan and multitasking?” one follower asked.
Despite the comments, Barretto has yet to respond to her followers’ questions or clarify if she is open to hiring additional staff to divide the workload. The actress remains hopeful, ending her post with a request for prayers: “Please pray for the perfect personal assistant/accountant.”
It remains to be seen whether Barretto will adjust her expectations or find her ideal candidate.
