Virtual Assistant

There are people and companies who cannot handle their works 100% of the time 24/7. This is when virtual assistants come to their aid. As virtual assistants, you are not expected to be an expert on something; you just mainly have to answer the call or the help of your clients. There are companies who require assistants to answer phone calls, call people using Skype, sort papers, sheets, and many more services that assistants do.

Job requirement: Although you aren’t required to be fully versed in the English language, you may need to be knowledgeable and comprehensible with it. You need to have a stable and reliable internet connection. It is also recommended to be somewhere quiet because you will be required to take and make calls.

If you are one of those who are updated with modern software, gifted with an initial creative gut of approaching things, and driven by art and inspiration, then being a graphic designer is a perfect spot for you. This job requires you to create visual images for companies and for employers. What’s good about this is that you do not have to work 8 hours a day; although there are some who spend more hours when working on only one specific project.

BaristaI’m pretty sure every student or employee has set foot inside coffee shops namely Starbucks, The Coffee Bean, or any other coffee shop you know. The people who greet you a “good morning” and the ones who bid farewell with a “have a nice day!” are the ones who you call baristas; they are the ones who make your coffee, tea, or any other drink that you like served.
