I applied to some postings as well as posted my resume on Craigslist yesterday, and everyone of them have contacted me saying they're interrested or I am a front runner but all of them either have strings attached..things you need to do or purchase before getting an interview or the English/grammer is so bad it is very off-putting. Has anyone gotten a creditable lead on craigslist lately???

I have notice that myself. The jobs sometimes seem too good to be true, that should have been the clue there. But I'm so determined to get my business up and running that I answer the ads in hope that at least one of them will be legit. You are not alone!

I just posted my services on Craigslist and I have to say I was a little skeptical, but I will give a try.

I thought about that too. I've been trolling looking at some of the ads from others who are seeking assistants. I wonder if offering my VA services to them would bring forth any fruit?

I've gotten some great jobs from Craigslist. You definately have to search - like a needle in a haystack - but they are there.

My latest client is from CraigsList.

In fact, I had let the ad expire but he had done a search in my area, my ad popped up so he gave me a call.

That is definitely encouraging. Although I don't give up, but most of the ads I answer are not legitimate. I haven't tried answering ads outside of where I live but may I should. Thanks again!

Thanks, it is good to know that there is potential out there. I will keep searching and let you all know if I find anything legit!!

That's encouraging news. I, too, have checked CraigsList and have been very discouraged.
