Cody works in film (right?) and I really have no idea how that career path goes. I know that AEs in film actually work on the edit from time to time, whereas in reality TV they strictly do technical work.

Assistants in film are more along the lines of collaborators. They are expected to know the footage really well and contribute. So an editor might ask them to pull up a reaction shot where character does X, and they will get it and cut it in. They generally make simple trims or alterations. They are an extra pair of eyes to watch the cut and put out ideas.

At least that is how I treat mine.

Pay is also much better in film, and schedules more relaxed.
