Top Notch Virtual Assistant

Seeking an honest, dedicated, efficient and ambitious virtual assistant.

Please read the complete posting carefully and respond, or move on accordingly.

You will be expected to showcase your present skill set while developing
the new skills needed to help a small home-based business expand.

The tasks will vary greatly. Training and support will be provided as needed.
You must be willing to take on new challenges and develop the required skills
by putting in the time, dedication and practice needed. Your attitude, work
ethic and commitment are just as important or maybe even more important
than your present skills and experiences.

A sampling of the tasks could include:
a) conducting research and preparing follow-up in a variety of formats
b) creating infographics,
c) writing for a variety of purposes
d) organizing and inputting data
e) marketing - digital, social media, email
f) creating short videos / power point presentations
g) monitoring and participation in social media forums
h) setting up Facebook pages
i) posting ads
j) some Wordpress website updating

Obviously, I would do some of these myself and I might even hire a second VA for specific
skills eg. the Wordpress updating, certain writing needs, social media monitoring...

I believe in open, honest communication (both ways). You must be able to accept and
respond positively to constructive direction so you can develop the skills
I need for my business.

This is a part time position to start but has potential to lead to full time.

j) The ability to work with minimal supervision when required

Please reply with:
a) resume - plus a paragraph that explains why you think you are a
strong candidate for this position
b) hours available to work
c) when can you start
d) wage expectations
e) your top 3 skills
f) 2 areas in your skill set that need improvement
g) 5 sentences that best introduce you, as a person,
not as an employee.

Please NOTE:
1. I take the process of hiring someone very ---------- takes time, patience and
work for all that are ---------- can have a major impact on my business ventures
and can potentially offer stability for your online working career.

2. I'm seeking someone who is looking for a long term position.

I know people are at different stages in their career. I’m NOT looking for someone
who just wants to try it out or is looking at it as free training and a stepping stone to
something better in a few months time.

If that’s you, please don’t respond to this posting or participate in the interview process.

3. If you do not follow directions and respond to the required info above, I will remove
your application without giving it any consideration.

I thank everyone in advance for applying but will only respond to those who are shortlisted.
That will happen no later than noon, on Monday, January 2, EST. Those short listed will be
required to respond to further questions and complete some tasks that will showcase your
skill set.

me. I look forward to meeting some exceptional individuals as we go through this challenging
