Virtual Assistant
Virtual assistant jobs have become increasingly popular in recent years. Many small businesses and corporations are beginning to see the benefits of hiring work from home professionals to handle the day-to-day operations of their businesses. They can save money on taxes, eliminate the need for insurance costs, and focus on the money-making aspect of their business model by hiring a remote virtual assistant. Virtual assistants handle e-mail correspondence, phone calls, spreadsheets, payroll, marketing materials, faxing, and many other duties.


 

In many cases, they act as the “face” of the company and its correspondence with clients, customers, and vendors. Anyone with experience in an office as an accountant, receptionist, or payroll specialist can find gainful employment as a virtual assistant. Many reputable companies are hiring and there are many websites devoted exclusively to virtual assistant professionals. Some of these sites even offer certification opportunities to help you get noticed.
