Virtual Assistant - Resume & Job Application Specialist (Part-Time)
I'm looking for a dependable Virtual Assistant based in the Philippines to help me with my job search by submitting **15-30 high-quality job applications per day**.
This role is more than simply filling out applications. I'm looking for someone who can carefully read job descriptions, tailor my resume using templates and instructions that I provide, and make sure each application is submitted accurately.
The position is expected to last for the duration of my job search, but there may be opportunities for additional work if it's a good fit.
If you're organized, detail-oriented, and enjoy administrative work, I'd love to hear from you.
Responsibilities
Your responsibilities will include:
* Search for jobs that match the criteria I provide
* Read and evaluate job descriptions
* Tailor my resume using templates and guidelines before submitting applications
* Select the most appropriate resume version for each opportunity
* Make small edits to resumes and cover letters to better align with job descriptions
* Upload resumes, cover letters, and supporting documents
* Complete online job applications accurately
* Answer application questions using information I provide
* Track every application in Google Sheets
* Keep organized records of submitted applications and their status
* Flag opportunities that require additional customization or my review
* Follow written instructions carefully and maintain a high level of accuracy
What I'm Looking For
The ideal candidate is someone who:
* Has excellent attention to detail
* Is organized and dependable
* Has strong written English
* Enjoys repetitive administrative work
* Reads instructions carefully instead of rushing through tasks
* Has good reading comprehension and can identify the most important qualifications in a job description
* Can make thoughtful edits to resumes and cover letters using provided templates
* Understands that every application should be tailored instead of submitting the same resume everywhere
* Is comfortable asking questions when something isn't clear
* Can work independently after training
* Communicates professionally and consistently
Experience as a Virtual Assistant is helpful, but reliability, attention to detail, and willingness to learn are much more important.
Requirements
* Reliable internet connection
* Computer or laptop
* Available Monday through Friday
* Comfortable using Google Docs, Google Sheets, Gmail, and LinkedIn
* Able to quickly learn new websites and applicant tracking systems
* Experience with Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, or similar platforms is a plus, but not required
This Role Isn't a Good Fit If You...
Please don't apply if you:
* Rush through work just to complete tasks
* Frequently miss deadlines
* Need constant reminders or supervision
* Copy and paste without reading instructions
* Have difficulty communicating
* Are juggling so many jobs that you can't consistently complete this one
I'd much rather receive 15 accurate applications than 30 rushed ones.
Hours & Compensation
* Part-time contractor
* Approximately 2-4 hours per day
* Monday-Friday
* $100-$150 USD per month depending on experience, attention to detail, and quality of work
Training
I'll provide written instructions, templates, examples, and screen recordings to help you succeed.
You don't need to know everything on Day 1. I'm looking for someone who is willing to learn, pays attention to details, and takes pride in doing quality work.
How to Apply
To help me identify candidates who pay attention to detail, please follow these instructions carefully.
1. Begin your application with the words:
**Blue Sky Applicant**
2. Include the following:
* Why you're interested in this position
* Why you think you'd be a good fit
* Your internet speed
* Your computer specifications
* Your availability (Philippine Time)
3. In 3-5 sentences, explain how you stay organized when working on repetitive tasks.
4. Tell me about a time you caught a mistake before it became a bigger problem.
5. Somewhere in your application, mention your favorite color.
6. End your application with the word:
**Pineapple**
Applications that don't follow these instructions will not be considered.
Skills Assessment
Candidates selected for the next stage will complete a short paid assessment that should take about 20-30 minutes.
The assessment is designed to evaluate:
* Attention to detail
* Ability to follow instructions
* Organization
* Communication
* Reading comprehension
* Accuracy
* Resume customization
* Problem-solving
I'm looking for someone I can trust to represent me professionally throughout my job search. If that sounds like you, I look forward to reviewing your application.
