I’m transitioning into a Virtual Assistant career and looking to gain hands-on experience. If anyone is interested in some free help, I’d be happy to support with:
• Email, calendar and project management
• Data entry, spreadsheets and basic bookkeeping
• Document preparation & research
• Canva designs

Open to volunteer work, entry-level, or freelance opportunities. If you need an extra hand, I’d love to help while building my experience.

Just a note for offering free work, depending on where that is it may not be actually legal. In the US it's a very very fine line to what is allowed or not and most are not complying with the law when they offer opportunities to give someone work experience for no pay. It's usually not a problem for you and your situation, but if anyone offers it to you, they could be the ones in trouble.

It's. Super hard place to be in though, and I get that.

Hi fish,

Kindly consider this as most confused situation of my life and reply.

Does a non-tech PMO candidate can also achieve 30-50 LPA in just 5-6 years of experience as you technical people are achieving.

Please also suggest, should I continue in this PMO and go for PMP, Prince2 then try or just learn some technical things and then can only expect this much package?

Partners handle deps/court but that is about it. Is this a normal case load to be responsible for as a jr? I being dramatic by thinking this is too much?

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.
