Mukhtar Ali – Executive Assistant

Hi, my name is Mukhtar Ali, and I have been working as a virtual assistant for nearly a year now. I have a diverse academic experience where I graduated in Commerce and did my master’s in Media Studies. I had started doing job in late 2012 due to some financial crises. Obviously my father never let us know what’s going on, but I could sense it is getting difficult for him to handle and manage expenses. So, being a responsible son, I decided to start working myself. I was 18 years old at that point. My first job was a CSR-Customer Support Representative. The reason why I took this job is because 1- I had to speak in English, 2- I was fond of learning a second language and loved to communicate. I am an Urdu speaker, and I belong to Pakistan. I was always fond of speaking English and communicate in English from the start. I mean, I studied in English medium school and worked hard on my linguistic skills. So getting back to my work experience: it was a wholesome experience. On one side, I was happy to connect with foreigners and on the other side, constant hangups forced me to work hard on my linguistic skills and level up. Since, it was a night shift, it was taking some toll on my health. So, I decided to leave after working for a whole year. I got back to college and graduated in Commerce. Back and forth, I had to work to support my family because you never know when life knocks you down. So, I decided to become financially independent and support my family for real.

I got married a few months ago and I have been working as a virtual assistant at a company for last 10 months. Working as a virtual assistant helped me learn new set of skills which I desperately needed. I believe it’s something that is in demand and must be known to survive as survival for the fittest. Moreover, I want to level up. Now since I have gotten married, it’s my responsibility to provide. Now coming across your website, I believe you will be providing me with a perfect opportunity to not only work from home, as I currently commute to office which is almost an hour away. You will also be enabling me to stay with my wife, as what’s the point if you are not spending time with your loved ones and then regretting later on. I shall be grateful if I am considered for this role, as this role will be giving me a lot of relief, especially with its work from home aspect. Really excited to hear from you guys.
