After investigating and try posing as an applicant, please find below the reply I got. As you can see, the package is way below my expectation.
That means if she is charging $25 to her clients and paying to her assistants $500 per month at 40hours per week, she is only spending $3 out of her $25 and $23 per hour will go to her pocket. I calculated if she have 10 VAs, she will earn $55,200 per month and that is around P2.28 million pesos per month. Magtukod na lang ta ug parehas ani nga business adto sa US.
Nevertheless, this is good enough to utilize an idle time while waiting for better opportunities.
This is her reply:
Hi Ray,
Thank you for the comment/reply/interest you posted on WFA. VA requirements are always in flux. Right now, I need a person who is familiar with social book/networking using Digg, Reddit and other sites. Are you familiar? I also have several online ads for VA right now, one of them in CL. Please read on below and if interested (and meet requirements) please feel free to apply. The text below is the exact ad I have ongoing right now.
Take care,
K

We have received several applications and sadly many have NOT demonstrated the capacity to follow simple instructions.
Previous applicants need not apply.
My virtual assistance business has grown and I am accepting applicants. The job, initially will be part time and you will be required to work during PST (Pacific Time Zone) - about 14 hours delay from Philippine time. If things work out and we are a good fit, this will become a full time job.

We will send robots and spiders to your computer to check your system and security. You must also have an unlimited USA calling plan - we will reimburse this after you have served us successfully for three months. We prefer that you use Magic Jack or Vonage with a headset.
The job will entail online research, in and outbound calling, Craigslist posting, blogging. Minimum skills required (If you do not have these minimum requirements or experience in CL posting, Blogging, in/outbound calls, Google Docs, please do NOT apply. You will be wasting your time and ours:
1. Fluent in English - written and spoken 2. Must know all of the following: MS Word, MS Excel 3. Google Docs

Payments in US Dollar - regardless of exchange rate:
Full time = 40 hrs/week = $500/month proby (3 months), $600/month thereafter Half time = 20 hrs/week = $250/month proby (3 months), $300/month thereafter Part time = 10 hrs/week = $125/month proby (3 months); $150/month thereafter Annual performance evaluation that may give you up to 4% increase.
Those interested can apply, submit your resume AND fill up our online application at
www.katriv.com (scroll down the page and click on "Do You Want To Join Our VA Team?" link). Give us 3 professional references and 1 personal reference with phone number and email.
Those considered for employment will receive an email notification to schedule an online interview. We will be calling on the references of those who pass the interview process.
NO PHONE CALLS please. Only those who can follow instructions to the letter will be considered. Obviously working remotely means we will not be on your back the whole time and if you can not follow simple instructions while applying, our theory is you will not be able to follow complex instructions later on.
Thank you and good luck.
