Looking for a Virtual Assistant? Try VirtualAssistantJobs101.com
Looking for a virtual assistant? Why not try going to the Web site where they are all searching for jobs?
VirtualAssistantJobs101.com just went live with a new Web site that aims to help unemployed service-skilled works discover and land hourly or project-based virtual assistant gigs they can do from their very own virtual office.
Brian Scott, the site’s founder, defines “service-skilled people” as those who have backgrounds in customer service, office assistance, doing administrative tasks, and/or servicing employers or clients to increase sales or improve product branding.
Here’s how it works: Every day, VirtualAssistantJobs101.com editors scour the Internet and handpick legitimate job opportunities. If you are looking for a virtual assistant, you can post your needs on the sister site, Freelance Job Openings. That’s one of the places from which the editors gather the job opportunities for virtual assistants.
For virtual assistants, the site offers fairly simple navigation. VAs just click on a specific job discipline to find the best-matched opportunity. Job-hunting virtual assistants can also use the site’s search tool to narrow down specific remote, telecommute and “work at home” freelance jobs by keyword or job type.
Scott says many visitors that use VirtualAssistantJobs101.com are full-time and part-time virtual assistants—but a growing segment of the audience includes “fed-up” laid-off white-collar workers who want to use their existing skills to work for themselves.
“Working virtually, part-time, full-time, or on the side can provide many job opportunities to earn extra income,” says Scott. “More companies are outsourcing work to manage their workflow and cut internal costs in order to stay competitive.”
VirtualAssistantJobs101.com lists between 10 and 20 new virtual assistant jobs daily, ranging from quick “one-day” assignments to “week-long” projects, and in some cases, for an indefinite period of time as is such the case with customer service and medical coding jobs.
