As a newbie in the field, I would like to ask for shared thoughts about on how to be a virtual assistant, what kind of skills are needed to have. I am applying for the job for a month now and although I landed on a lot of job posted on top leading sites, I still am worried not to get one. Although I have the basic skills like web content writing experience like blogging and social media activities, I still doubt that i feel I don't have enough of the skills or I don't even meet their criteria. Well, I just hope I find tips getting an online job personally.

Things will work out positively when keep on trying. Never give up. The sad thing is that there are lot of training skills and promising e books but you have to pay it first.

We have the same thought on how to be a Virtual Assistant. As we all know it's in demand now a days. I also posted a discussion about that and few commented about it. I used to apply in an office based Virtual assistant but they said they will call me. Maybe they don't want just my callcenter experience but I do have other stuff that help me become a virtual assistant, aside from that. I can learn fast. Then there are schools offeribg you for 2 to 3 months studying on how to become a virtual assistant. I kind of liking the idea but the boyfriend said not a good idea. Then I have like most of my friends are virtual assistant others are taking over the business already. Travelled to the main office such as Australia and the US. I asked for their advise about it and they told me I should learn the basic and they cannot put me to work with them because they work graveyard. And I cannot work on graveyard. So office based morning shift is the best for me.
