SwiftDesk: (a) ACTS — it is the entity offering the internship, training, and potential official position. Removing it would change the entire purpose of the video as it is the employer/brand being built.

Who I'm looking for?
Has the Foundation of being a VA
Wants to build a career as a VA
Reliable & Communicative
Proactive & Resourceful
THIS ISN'T JUST "WATCH A COURSE" TRAINING.
You'll get hands-on exposure to:
Email Management
Calendar Management
Admin & Operations
Social Media & Task Management
A LITTLE TRANSPARENCY
Since SwiftDesk is still in its early stages,
I'm currently building the team from the
ground up.
Because of this, I can only offer free
training during the 2-3 week internship
period while you learn the systems, tools,
and processes you'll be using as a General
VA.
This is an opportunity to gain hands-on
experience, apply what you've learned,
and build your skills in a real working
environment.
Your performance during the training will
determine whether you'll be offered an
official position with SwiftDesk.
READY TO GET STARTED?
Follow me here and send me:
Resume
Portfolio (if you have one)
Short introduction about yourself
I'm looking for someone who is
ready to learn, apply, and grow.
