There was this one time I was hired to do a data entry job for a firm. It was a remote job and it involved me copying some data and correctly arranging them on an excel file. Then I didn't exactly associate what I was doing as anything remotely close to a virtual assistant. Now that I have come to think about it, I have realized that at that point I was effectively working as a virtual assistant.
Well you are very hardworking for you to work as a data entry officer for a firm because from what I have gathered about that job if that it is very stressful and at the end of the day the firm will be paying you a very little amount of money for you to be doing the job.
 
Yet to get any jobs though i have been applying for similar online remote jobs via up2staff website, yet to get positive response. I guess these stuffs seem very competitive.
 
Such jobs is definitely one of the best jobs in which anyone can get because you can do it sitting at the comfort of your home. I've not gotten one yet.

A virtual assistant provides various services to entrepreneurs or businesses from a remote location. From digital marketing tasks, scheduling appointments and managing events to personal errands,this is really cool as one can set his or her own convenient hour of work
 
I would like a job like this since it is high paying and it's inline it could be done anytime but some of the available jobs consume a lot of time
 
I have worked as a virtual assistant before, my job was to reply to Watsapp messages of a business. It's a really mondane task but it's worth the price.
 
I haven't worked as a virtual assistant though I've seen adverts for it and even seen some training programs that teaches one how to but I know it's very lucrative especially once you're handling multiple client portfolio say for instance your client has a webpage, email list, social media handles and you're required to help in all
 
I currently work remotely (online) at home and I work for a company abroad as a customer support and sales specialist, these enables me to attend to orders, issues and inquiries via chats, calls and emails. My digital marketing skills enable me to advertise the company products via various social media platforms. Very interesting job.
 
No, I haven't worked as a virtual assistant because I hardly find such an opportunity and secondly I think I need to develop my skills to meet up to what is needed to be a virtual assistant.
