Time Etc Virtual Assistant Interview Questions

Filled out an application form online explaining my experience/skills and why I want to work virtually. Once I was invited, I set up the interview via Calendly; it was a Zoom call without video for approx. 10 min total. Felt a bit rushed towards the end but the lady was very kind and on time.

I received an email to book a time slot to have an interview. The interview was virtual via Zoom but cameras were turned off. It took about 15 minutes speaking to a very kind member of the team.

I had an interview via zoom with a very pleasant and professional representative of TimeEtc. It was straight and to the point. Less than 20 minutes and I was asked questions about my work experience and what my expectations are working with TimeEtc. I went very well.

-A short evaluation on the website. -A short call to confirm the experience. -An email confirming the acceptance. -You start the job right away but there's no training. -It was very fast.

After reading basic information about the company, where they make it very clear that this job is not supposed to be anyone's sole source of income, I had to answer some basic multiple choice questions regarding potential workplace scenarios. The answer they expect you to choose is very obvious - just think like your boss would want you to think. There were also some questions about our experience working remotely. Next I had to complete a task for a fake client in 30 minutes or less. We received a brief email from the client providing basic details about his upcoming trip to NYC requesting us to plan his transportation from JFK Terminal 7 to his hotel. We had to provide our written response in a text box on the web page and could also upload attachments. After passing that test, I was signed up for a 15 minute phone interview. A woman from the UK called me and we spoke for less than 10 minutes. That was my sign that I didn't "pass", since it went so short.

Easy online application and then short phone interview with basic questions about background and why you want to work as a va. They ask about your work environment and home office and if you have worked remotely before.

Several online forms and quizzes, submitting ID, practice task, phone call. I didn't see the point in the whole process to be honest. It was not fully explained why I had to create all these profiles etc and then at the end of it not get any work out of it. Just received an email to say I was rejected despite having 10+ years experience in administration and assistance, particularly working remotely and with international clients. I asked during the phone call how they market their products and get new clients, she said she wasn't aware and it's up to the CEO, but users get a free trial. Then she said that they do not have many clients or work available at the moment, and this was the reason for not progressing me stated in the email. I find this bad practice for a company, and the telephone rep was very unprofessional - why would you go through the process to hire new staff if you do not have the work available for them? I asked for all my details to be removed from their system and hoping I will get paid for the effort put in for the practice task, otherwise it will all be a complete waste of time.
