Hello, I am a BME that has an applicant for the virtual assistant role and here are my responses to the asked question. For the first question, about describing a time when I noticed a small but significant detail and how it impacted the outcome. While I was working at 2711, we had a big client we've been trying to reach for ages but nothing was working. The team kept trying to call, send emails to the company or we weren't getting anywhere so I suggested digging
a bit deeper to find a client's personal email instead of the company one, which actually worked. That little detail made all the difference and we finally got through and achieved our goal. For the second question, about what motivates me to stay with a job long term and how I maintain focus and enthusiasm over time. For me it's not just about the monetary aspect, I genuinely care about the growth of the organization.
It's an amazing feeling when you know you're contributing to this process and you're being part of the company's growth story. That alone truly motivates me and gets me focused. For the third question, how I handle a client who is upset, frustrated or anxious over the phone or video. I always start by really listening to the clients and giving them the space to share everything on their mind. People love feeling heard. Once they've expressed themselves, I ensure to show empathy and let them know I get where they're coming from.
Then I proceed to fixing the issue right away. If it is something beyond my control, I ensure to get it to the right team as soon as possible. Throughout the whole process, I learn to stay positive and supportive to help the client feel valued and important. An example of the time I carried out something like this was when a customer who was frustrated because of her order wasn't showing up correctly in the system.
Because I learned to explain everything and I really listened to her concern, once she was done, I reassured her that I understood how stressful the situation must have been. I quickly checked her order and found a system error. Since I couldn't fix it on my own, I immediately contacted the support team to get it resolved as quickly as possible. I ensure to keep the customer updated throughout the whole process, staying positive and calm. In the end, the issue was fixed and she thanked me for making her feel valued and heard.
The first question, what pay would I expect or intend to earn for a full-time position? Well, within the range of $300 to $500 monthly, but I'm willing to go with the base pay of the company if there is any. Question five, do I have a minimum of a bachelor degree and how soon do I intend to start? Yes, I do have a bachelor degree and I'm willing to start with immediate effect. The last question, do I have experience with posting on social media, creating reels, carousels and posts? Yes, I do.
As a social media manager, I have created lots of reels and carousels and posts. I know how to tailor content for different audiences and platforms. I also handle scheduling and tracking performance to ensure everything runs smoothly. I'm familiar with tools like Capcode, Canva, Meta Business Suite, Buffer, Later and Notion to help manage social media accounts effectively and efficiently. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much.
