“Just get a remote job.”

You people say this like remote jobs are tomatoes in Mile 3 market. 😭

One of the hardest parts of starting remote work in Nigeria isn't learning the skill.

It's figuring out where the actual jobs are.

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

What’s stopping you from learning that digital skill??

Scared of not being able to land a job?

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

Nobody prepares you for how confusing remote work is when you're just starting.
“What do I apply for?”
“Where do I apply?”
“What do I even put on my CV?”
“Why did they reject me?”
😭😭😭

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

Remote job hunting in Nigeria will humble you.

But it will also teach you how to sell yourself.

Your CV says you're organized.
Your desktop has 47 files named:

You know you're becoming a serious remote worker when you have:

Google Calendar
Notion
Slack
Zoom
and three different internet options.

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

I don edit my cv like 100 times

God abeg 🤲😭😭

Someone posting

$10,000 earned this month isn't proof that you'll earn the same.

Social media shows results.
It rarely shows the years behind them.
Build your career on skills.
Not screenshots.
Comparison is expensive.

Manifesting a Land before this time next year 🤲🤲. I don’t know how it’ll happen 🥺

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

Hot take:

The best VAs aren't the most talented.

They're the most consistent.

Show up. Every time.

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

Unpopular opinion:

Your degree won't get you a remote job.

Your skills will.

[Executive Assistant Faith @BurabariS13639]

A client once told me:

"I don't know what I'd do without you."

That's not luck.

That's what over-delivering builds.
