Davewin Alexis Closa – Research Specialist

I am Davewin Alexis M. Closa. I am 31 years old. I am the eldest of seven siblings. I am a fresh graduate so I have no work experience yet. I had my On-the-Job training at an elementary school near us where I was an assistant teacher to grade five students. I took up a Bachelor of Arts in English Language Studies at the Batangas State University- The National Engineering University. I chose this program because English is my first love and Mathematics is my Achilles Heel. My program focuses more on writing and not on speaking in English.

I have no plans to further my studies such as taking up a Masteral or Doctorate because I don’t think teaching is for me. Don’t get me wrong I believe that teaching is a noble profession but I want a work where I will have a work-life balance. I don’t want to be working non-stop or bombarded with paper works 24/7.

I am an aspiring virtual assistant and went through intensive training where I learned about Calendar Management, Social Media Management, Graphic Design, Content Writing, Lead/ Data Entry and Basic Video Design.

What made to opt to apply as a virtual assistant are the following reasons: to escape the traffic because it is so time-consuming and energy-draining, to be able to spend more time with my family and to work comfortably at home, anytime and anywhere. I believe that even though a person is a work-from-home it does not make him or her lazy. He/She still possesses a good work ethic and good working relationship with his/her colleagues.

I describe myself as hardworking, committed, and dependable. I am also organised and disciplined as well. Even though I am new to being a virtual assistant I am a fast learner and hungry to learn. I want to prove myself and to earn my spot in the company. There is no problem with starting small and from a humble beginning as it will create my momentum and definitely will climb up the career ladder. I know that there are more skills and knowledge that I need to learn because there is always room for improvement and learning never stops. Nevertheless, if this job opportunity is not for me, I will accept it with a grain of salt and just continue moving forward, for my dreams definitely.
