You're not alone in that, it can take a long time. For a while work from home jobs were just a lot more common, but they've become relatively scarce in the past year or two. Because so many companies now require people to be in the office (which is what happened to me), the competition for remote jobs can be pretty intense. All you can do is keep looking and stay persistent.

It is very hard, but not impossible. The competition is wild. I didn’t take too long, but it wasn’t easy. Most of the emails said, “Thank you, but we’re moving forward with candidates who are a better fit for this position.” Some led to interviews, some didn’t go far, and others just ghosted me.

But if you work hard to understand how to optimize your resume, prepare better for interviews, and really understand the process, that will be crucial. The internet is full of great resources to help you. Create profiles on the most important platforms, but don’t get scammed by those that force you to pay to be more visible. There are better free options. Many legit platforms never require payment to increase visibility, and paying doesn’t guarantee results.

I found a great opportunity using Lifeshack AI on the trial version with auto-applying. I didn’t even have to pay much attention, just set it up and let it work for me. Now I’m starting this Monday.

Stay optimistic, learn as much as you can, and don’t give up. Every “no” and every interview is one step closer to your ideal job.

Work from home roles have been really hard to find the past year or so. So many office forced return to office and a lot of companies did away with remote work altogether. I do know Amazon is usually hiring for fully remote roles.

It's very hard, I'm starting out as a beginner Va, and finding entry-level work is difficult. I'm exhausted. Everyone wants years of experience, not minding the skill I possess, I am fresh out of school, man, if no one employs me, how do I get experience?

My perhaps naive perspective is that Brahmins are a caste but also a religious subsect. One can be religious and seek similar devotees without believing in or perpetuating caste hierarchy. Reductive or fair?

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities. In an effort to make my job opportunity appealing, I am asking everyone in this bowl about an appropriate job title. Is "Administrative Assistant" outdated or unappealing? I certainly don't want to mislead anyone on the job responsibilities, but I do want to avoid any potential negative stereotypes attached to that job title. Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?
