I'm hiring:
Interested in joining team Doster?
I'm looking to add another VA to my team. My main integrator will be going out on leave for 2-3 week and we've needed to hire another time mate for a long time, because balancing all the long term, short term and day to day things as become too much for us. (And I personally feel my listies, have gotten the short end of the stick). So while I don't have a specific title "per se" here are the types of things that this a new person would doing and more importantly the general attitude my new teammate would need to have. If you know anyone (including yourself) please email me kate@katedoster.com - Subject line - Golden Ostrich. The kind of person I'm looking for:
Has a good sense of humor
Takes Initiative
When asking for clarification or if they aren't not quite sure how to handle a task/problem they bring us two solutions for what they think they should do,
Alittle woo-woo
Has a quick turn around times during the week
Doesn't miss deadlines
Is comfortable with tech
Is comfortable with difficult conversations (ie dealing with failed payments)
Loves supporting people
Up for anything
Detail oriented
Doesn't want to teach others how to be a VA or sell courses on starting your own business, because she's/ he's happier behind the scenes.
Is available to meet for team meetings around 1pm EST on Mondays (give or take a couple of hours)
Excited to help a million people this year
Doesn't need alot of hand holding / can figure stuff out on their own
 
The kind of tasks we need help with (keep in mind they wouldn't be doing everything but with my main support person out on leave I would need them to step up for a couple of weeks doing various things)
Proofreading (Obviously) (I'm creating alot of new content but I need ALOT of old stuff proofed too)
Dealing with missed payments
Copying sales pages from my site to Podia
Scheduling items in Tailwind
Creating Pins
Posting in Tailwind Tribes
Random things in Wordpress (mainly proofing / directly editing my stuff on my website)
Posting to social media
Creating graphics
Being a huge cheerleader in here
Managing my inbox
Transcribing things for me
Reaching out to podcasts / filling in speaker information request forms for me.
 
So basically a more general admin VA for now, who knows Pinterest and LOVES helping people. I'm guessing it will be between 5-10 hours per week. Closer to 10 hours at the beginning.
 
Having a MAC + knowing alittle about Podia would be a huge plus, however being comfortable with Google Docs, Google Drive, Drop Box, Zoom, Trello & Wordpress are a must
