It was uncomfortable to let them record through my computer. I answered every question perfectly... and was rejected twice. But after doing further research on this company Fancy Hands... I'm actually happy I dodged this shady company. Apparently, they do not treat their employees well, and there isn't always enough work to go around. Just google fancy hands employee reviews and you will read some crazy stories.

I too have a Virtual Assistant business with active clients, just wanted some extra Starbucks money. I am a published author, and I had a career in the banking industry for many years as Asst. Vice President, Teacher in my younger years. Went into semi-retirement at age 50 to work 4 to 6 months out of the year in Human Resources in the Theme park industry so I could travel the rest of the year. I now have my VA business for flexibility so I can travel the world at the drop of a hat. I thought this would be a perfect fit for me.

I did get accepted. However, it doesn't feel like it's worth it. Some of the tasks are easy enough, but I do think that some of them should require someone with a higher degree of education and professional experience than myself. This is essentially drone work. It's almost like scraping the bottom of the barrel. They don't even train you either. They just give you a pdf "field guide" to read over, and if you need clarification on something, they just tell you to read the field guide even if that's the part that made your brain feel like mush to begin with. It's almost like their hiring people who are total noobs at this, like myself, but expecting them to do self-training.

I am new to the field of being a VA and extremely interesting in entering into it. I thought Fancy Hands would be a great introduction. I have now applied maybe 8 times in the past 2-3 weeks and the only reason I keep doing that is because I have gotten NO RESPONSE. I'm not being accepted or rejected... I'm just being ignored!?!?!?

I too was rejected immediately. I was on my second application but after reading these comments, I may reconsider. I have a BBA and an MBA and I'm certain I answered the questions correctly. The only thing I can think of would be the sample tasks may have been answered in a formal manner and they were looking for something a bit more lax. Every single person that was denied (that I know of) has some form of higher education. Most people (read: women) that I've seen get hired are high school educated, stay at home moms.

I'm pretty sure I absolutely aced the test for their 'rat' job, and by the way, I have a 5 year B.S. degree in Engineering from a major University as well as a minor in mathematics and physics. I am semi-retired and just looking for an easy and flexible way to make a little extra money. Also, for those interested, check out this current rating for Fancy Hands on Glassdoor - https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Fancy-Hands-Reviews-E685954.htm - that's right, a 2.1 out of 5. Good luck everyone and don't despair - there's got to be something better than this.

Allowing me to lead successful congressional campaigns proved to be a wise choice. Accepting me into a Top 30 US business program was a no brainier, yet, trusting me to accurately place a lunch order or cancel an appointment is far too absurd to fathom.
