what is worldwide101I've been working from home in some capacity for over a decade. Eventually as my business grow I quickly realized I couldn't do everything on my own. So like any business I hired folks to land a helping hand. But I did it differently because my people were all working from home like me. At one time I had a team of 3-4 Virtual Assistants that helped me with various tasks. It gave me a lot more time to enjoy the work at home lifestyle that I worked so hard to build.

So I know from experience the joy of hiring and working with virtual assistants. If you're wondering how you can become a virtual assistant, then sit back and read my WorldWide101 Review. Because it may be an option you may want to consider.

What Is Worldwide101?

Founded in 2009, Worldwide101 is an international virtual assistant company with team members in North America and Europe. The company is headquartered in New York, and maintains an over seas branch office in Northants, NN, England.

Worldwide101 is serving clients around the world, providing skilled professionals as Virtual Assistants in the areas of administration, customer service, marketing automation, design, web development, and much more. One of their core specializations is multi-lingual support for businesses that want to expand into new international markets – particularly Germany and France.

During the first year, Worldwide101 realized that small business owners very often need more than just admin support. They started to assemble an array of team members with the versatility required to support business owners with more complex and specialized skills.

What Are The Requirements To Work For Worldwide101?

  • Advanced skills within your professional industry
  • A can-do attitude and a proactive outlook
  • Reliability, trustworthiness and discretion
  • Strong time management and efficiency
  • Willing to work at least 20 hours per week

  • Steadiness and dependability with great flexibility
  • Quick to learn and grasp new concepts
  • A high level of Internet knowledge and a solid understanding of cloud-based technologies
  • A computer with up-to-date software
  • A fast and reliable Internet connection

The Worldwide101 Application Process.

As you can see from their requirements, they are different than all the other similar sites. Therefore, their application process is more elaborate, almost like you apply for a management position in a big corporation.

You apply at their website. Their online application consists of the basic personal information, a listing of your skills and experience, your work history AND references, and your assessment WHY you are a perfect fit for their company.

If they think you are a fit, you will definitely hear from them within 2 weeks. In case they don't get in touch with you, don't bother to call or contact them by email. They state on their site, that they receive a great number of applications and their “small HR department” has not the resources to notify people they are not hiring.

But you are the perfect fit and are invited to a video interview via Skype. Make a first good impression, a second interview and skills test will follow shortly. Once you are accepted as Virtual Assistant, you will attend a Orientation Program, lasting a few days.

What Are The Worldwide101 Complaints?

Surprisingly we didn't find any complaints about this company which is a rare. But you know me, there are still things that concern me that I wanted to point out because they may be concerns for you as well. But it doesn't mean they're a scam.

Application Requirements Are Too Strict!

Worldwide101 sets a very high standard; not only for itself, but also for their Virtual Assistants. Their strict requirements MAY actually disqualify highly skilled people, if their resume or work history is not a 100% fit. This could be a losing situation for both, the company and the applicant.

You're Sharing Your Profits

The gift about working with a company like WorldWide101 is that they market their services and get clients. So you don't really have to worry about that aspect. But the curse part of working with a company like that is you sharing profits with them and basically in a pool of your competition. Whereas if you're independent you can make more assuming you can get your own client base.

So Is Worldwide101 Legitimate or A Scam?

Well if you've actually read through this review, you'll know they are not a scam and seem to be legit. WorldWide101.com is definitely one of the better opportunities I came across in a long time. If you can get in, it seems like a great way to make some money.

But if you can't get in or if you're just smart and don't want to have all your eggs in one basket, I would recommend that you have multiple income streams. Because we all know that things can change in a heart beat so you always want to have other sources of income flowing in like I do.

I also encourage you to check out how I make the better part of my income. My Top Free Work At Home Recommendation has helped me earn a big portion of my online income and My Work At Home Courses teach you how to keep your multiple income streams flowing in. So I encourage you to check them all out if you're interested in making money at home legitimately.

Well I think you guys should be good for today. As always, I love hearing from you. So feel free to leave a comment down below before you raise up out of here.

Thanks for reading.
