Hello Natasa,
I reviewed your profile and there are a few things I think you should work on that might help improve it.
Title: I recommend capitalizing the first letter of each word in your title. Also, I suggest spelling the word "virtual assistance" rather than the acronym, "VA." For example: Virtual Assistance | Graphic Prepress, CMS, Photo Retouching, UI Design
Overview/Summary: Your summary provides a lot of background information, but you never really tell potential clients how you can help them. Clients expect to read about your skills and qualifications, but they really want to know how your skills/qualifications will meet their needs or solve their problems.
Since you are focusing on graphic design, you should tell clients about those services early in your summary. The first two sentences of your summary are important because the client sees them when searching for freelancers. You want to make an impression in the first two sentences so the client is convinced to click and read your entire profile.
To do this, you can revise the content in your summary to make it sound more client-focused. For example, you can rewrite the first three or four paragraphs to be more assertive:
I am an expert Virtual Assistant and business owner specializing in graphic design services, content writing, office administration, and web administration. I can help with prepress services for books and other material; retouch photos; write web content; and manage CMS administration. I have also studied UX/UI design and can build landing pages and highly effective user interactions.
By profession, I am a graduate engineer in graphic technology and design, and I have worked as a graphic designer and web administrator. This experience which allows me to provide comprehensive virtual assistance services focused specifically on meeting your graphic design support needs. Due to my extensive experience as a back office administrator for a marketing agency, I can also help you with administrative, marketing, and sales support, but also in other business support activities as I have spent 7 years as an entrepreneur in the hospitality industry.
In my 20+ years of work, I had a very diverse career that brought me knowledge from different fields. I can help you achieve your goals by applying this experience to support your projects. (Here, instead of "My TOP 5 favorite jobs:", say "Services I can provide:") Services I can provide: 1. Prepress of books, monographs, and encyclopedias....(everything after this is fine). (However, I would remove the last two lines: "In addition to Latin letters, I also know Cyrillic very well. The level of knowledge of the English language is B2." since this does not provide much value to potential clients.) |
Employment History: You have a lot of graphic design and other relevant experience in your employment history. You should add job descriptions that contain more substance. This will help clients better understand your qualifications for each job in your employment history.
After you make these updates, start applying for jobs that match your qualifications and skills by writing great cover letters. In your cover letters, always make sure you create a custom response based on the client's job. Focus on the client's specific points in their job description; highlight your qualifications; and tell the client how you will meet their requirements.
Good luck!
