It took me 3 years to get a job after my Virtual Assistant certificate.
Yes. 3 whole years.
There's nothing I didn't do. I showed up online. I posted. I applied. I prayed. I changed my niche nine times. I kept getting more confused.
At some point I thought maybe this space just wasn't for me. Because everyone around me was celebrating, landing jobs, moving. And here I was.
Three years later, I'm an EdTech/SaaS Customer Success Manager, Community Manager, Author of The Virtual Assistant Blueprint, and Public Speaker.
I've helped teams cut churn and grow retention, led communities of 1,000+ members from 10+ countries, spoken at 6 events and mentored 50+ VAs.
If I started afresh today, here's exactly what I'd do differently in less than a month:
▪️I will choose a VA niche based on who I actually am, not what's trending.
▪️I will find my why and build my brand story around it.
▪️I will position myself clearly online.
▪️I will create content that attracts my potential clients.
▪️I will not use only one form of job search.
▪️I will build proof before clients.
You don't have to spend three years figuring this out the way I did. I'm handing you the exact roadmap, live and free, at The Virtual Assistant Hangout.

If you're jobless right now, or the job you're doing isn't sustainable, come here.
You and I both know it, deep down.
You learned a digital skill because someone told you jobs would be rushing you immediately after the course.
It's been six months now. Nothing.
You don't have to confirm if that's true or not.
I just want to tell you something.
If you're a Virtual Assistant, Social Media Manager, Customer Support Specialist, Project Manager, Medical VA, Executive Assistant, Content Writer, Bookkeeper, E-commerce VA, Legal VA, Community Manager, Lead Generation Specialist, CRM Manager, E-learning VA, Admin VA, or any professional trying to make this work, just graduated or been in this space a while, still stuck, still doing everything and still not getting hired, this is for you.
I'm hosting a free, live event to expose the roadmap to getting hired and building a real career.
We're talking clarity, positioning, proof, outreach, content, getting hired, and the confidence to hold it all together.
Don't miss The VA Hangout.

I got the Job💃💃
The beautiful side of building a brand on LinkedIn, you can decide to not apply or do anything but the gigs will still come.
Let's see what X can give us
Who else doesn't like posting an offer🤣
Dear Algorithm,
Take me to the VA who just finished a course and doesn't know what to do with the certificate.
Take me to the one who's applied to more jobs this month than he/she can count, and heard nothing back from any of them.
Take me to the one who's been "showing up online" for weeks, posting, engaging, doing everything he/she was told to do, and still isn't getting picked.
Take me to the one who took a second course, then a third, hoping the next one would finally be the one that made sense and instead just got more confused.
Take me to the one quietly wondering if this space was even meant for her, watching everyone else celebrate while she refreshes her notifications one more time.
Take me to the one who's stuck between "I'm certified" and "I'm actually hired," because that gap is the whole reason I'm doing this.
I spent almost three years in that exact gap.
I know what it costs, the confidence it eats, the courses you keep buying hoping one of them fixes it, the nights you ask yourself what's wrong with you when nothing's actually wrong with you at all.
So Algorithm, do your one job today. Put this in front of him/her.
If this is you, I'm hosting an event called "THE VA HANGOUT" where I will expose the real roadmap to getting hired and building a real VA career.

@brightafia You're right
Just take the X money as jara
You will discover how much you can actually make
It's just supposed to be a part, the creator program is why some people are ready to post anything for virality
