Applying for and actually getting a job as a virtual assistant really comes down to how you sell yourself. You don’t need a ton of experience or a high tech office, as long as you have a strong drive. Just make sure to highlight your skills and that you have the ones needed for the jobs you are applying for. Once you prove you can work independently you can build a strong online virtual assistant work portfolio. By including great feedback, you can use this online business portfolio when ever you feel necessary, to take on more work.
