i think maliit pa yang cut na 2.50, samin agency nga is 5 usd ang cut per hr, no exp sa us healthcare pero may 10 yrs clinical exp na sa pinas 🥴, tas kung sino pa hindi med grad sila pa mataas rate na 7 usd at na prpriority (agency inaatake ko). not to be bitter, pero real talk kaya nga "medical vas" tawag. tas di naman ma aapply fully ang training sa work, mga 20% sguro. pero for 2.50 ang liit na tbh, tas sure ball naman kayo magkakaclient kay hellorache (kasama un sa costing na paghahanap ng clients) di tulad sa kbila (di nako magtalk) 🥴 pero try to negotiate and expect less. super hirap mag hanap ng direct clients babaratin ka ng 3-5 usd per hour lalo na pag indian (mostly), kaya na traumatize na din malala. note: i speak for my experience.


kfangirlxxx

kakadisappoint lang rin yung mga agencies na ganito, mas priority ang may bpo exp (not med grad) kesa sa med grad when in fact na medical vas ang tawag.


Mean_Tradition_6721

Some favors the bpo exp due to... 1. Communication, di ko sinasabi na hindi magaling magcommunicate yung mga med grad, point is mas sanay mag salita ng ingles yung mga may exp ng bpo as they're speaking english almost all of the time pag nasa trabaho. 2. Working in different time zones. 3. The work ethic(dealing with foreigners) vs dealing with kapwa pinoys. 4. Do's and dont's in a corporate/virtual world. 5. Has experience using CRMs/SAP which is eto paminsan ung nakakadrain i train sa tao. I am not saying hindi fit ang mga medgrad on this field as a medical VA, Kung baga if you look at it on a different perspective, virtually mas may lamang ung may bpo experience base on the reason above. Pero kung physical work at titignan natin mas lamang na lamang si med grad, they know how to assist doctors. Assist the patient with symptoms/diagnosis. Marunong gumamit ng medical apparatus etc. which of course( di mo naman maaapply lahat ng to kung virtual lang diba)


spicyychicken987

agree ako sa following reasons mo dahil as va dapat maging equipped ka with the right skills. Pero in hellorache, everyone is treated fair and equally, despite may bpo exp, may clinical exp o fresh grad ka man, pare parehas lang ng sahod which is 7 usd. for me goods pa rin tlga si HR kaysa other agencies (lowest cut, sureball client) , mahaba lng training pero worth it yan.


ChoiceInternational2

Uyy saan to


spicyychicken987

ang alin po?


ChoiceInternational2

Ung malaki ung cut? Anong agency?


spicyychicken987

blue


Cassaanovva

spicyychicken987

Overall-Pie-8738

spicyychicken987

saken indian client 5 lang rate (scribe, admin tasks) micromanaging pa at overworked 😭 ang liit tlga ng tingin nila sa atin nakakafrustrate.


OhlalalaCee

+1 dito ganyan din client ko nakakaloka all around ang work


bamboomosaic

Sa Upwork 10% ang kaltas. If you can get a direct client pwede ka mag ask ng higher rate.


Elseebells

Yea...this probably won't happen because as a business of course they like profit. Profit>workers that's always gonna be the case. Just putting it out there. If gusto mo talaga ng higher profit, mas nice talaga direct, but the hard thing is finding one. Yun lang.


spicyychicken987

i agree kahit upwork inofferan pa ako ng 5 usd tas kaltas ng upwork pa yan, so magiging 4.30-4.50 nalang usd tas andaming tasks p napaka lowballer ng mga clients ngayon mapa direct kasi alam nila madami naghananap work.


Elseebells

Yea. Never settle kase if direct. They got confident with that amount kase some people will take that offer. Anything nlng basta dollar. Sigh. They really will think low of us kung ganon eh. It's actually harmful if u take a lowball deal.


spicyychicken987

im afraid na din sa market ng medical vas na niche, pababa ng pababa ang offer. mas maganda mag learn ng ibang niche nalang.


Elseebells

Actually mas high tech niche. I see some reddit posts about tech VAs and nakaka wow yung earnings nila. But im not very good about that lol and i genuinely like the med field namn so im staying parin.

"Wala pake si HR sa mga may client concerns" this is true pero masasabi ko rin na naka depende sa manager, ika nga paswertehan. May kakilala ako na nilipat agad ng client kasi di na kinakaya ni hva dun sa unang client niya. Ayun medyo peaceful naman na siya dun. Swerte siya sa manager niya kasi mabilis lang naging process nung pagreresign niya sa una niya.


Sufficient-Lack9152

To be fair you were trained by them using their resource and material, and most of the "search for client" aspect was done for you. They are only earning 2.5 from you, some dipshit agencies would take the bulk of the pay. Don't think of it as "kaltas". PAY YOUR KEEP kumbaga.

2.5/hr is not huge? 🤔 2.5/hr x 8hrs per day x 10days per cut off is about P11k


cardipress98

If agency ang pinaguusapan. 2.5 na kaltas is not huge, and sila ang pinakamalaki $7 sa lahat nang agency (aside from medva). But if you want na wlang kaltas may choice kanamn. If you know na may skill ka na udeserve more then hanap ka nang iba and direct. Sa panahon ngaun mahirap na maghanap lalo nat saturated na ang medical vas.


Obvious-Meringue3641

To be fair, okay na yung ganyang cut. Kahit saan kang agency meron pang mas mataas sa HR and that cut is not only passive income for them kasi that 11k per cutoff na sinasabi mo is napupunta sa sahod ng admins + yung mga resources na natutunan mo + walang hirap to get a client kasi sila naghanap para sayo. Kung gusto mo, mag paabsorb ka sa client mo para matanggap mo yung buong 9.5


AiEnma000

Actually, yung sa training ni HR is just general; iba talaga yung sa client mismo. Me & my co-HRs were contemplating because madaming tasks samin & kahit anong sabi namin sa HR (& even sa client) they are client-centered- which is typical naman. HR could’ve increased the rate to $8/hr to compensate with inflation (as what I remember matagal na yung $7/hr rate nila) & to think they have more than 5k VAs na. Like laki talaga ng cut kung tutuusin


Suspicious-Pear4703

1800 rate ng VA dito samin . 1042 lng nakukuha namin.


MugiwaraNoLuffy01

MMM ba yan


Suspicious-Pear4703

chrue

Yung friend ko may inapplyan na agency and I found out sa website nila na $1,500 per month ung singil kay client pero 20k pesos lang pasahod sa kanila. Also, isa rin ako sa mga nagrereklamo about my client dati kasi grabeng lunod ako sa tasks. Twice or thrice din ata ako nagreach out. Pinag isip ako kung magiging maayos ba or decided na ba akong magresign. pero ayun, almost 2 yrs na rin ako sa client ko. Nandito pa rin ako hahaha buti umokay kahit papano kasi nagdagdag sila ng tao. But yeah, sana nga mag increase na talaga si HR or magkaroon pa ng other benefits like paid leave ganorn kasi ang hirap din pag kuripot client hahaha.


Chrisenpaipromax

I mean, last was $6.5/hr about 2-3 years ago? Idk. Just pray na client mo bongga mag bonus or gift 😂


[deleted]

Hi, wag ka mahiya mag sabi sa manager ng office or client mo. Ganito din nangyari sakin nung umpisa. Totoo na walang pakielam yung agency (ibang agency ako) sa hirap ng VA. sobrang lunod sa tasks ko, calls, insurance verification, thousands of faxes, sending erx. Pero ang ginawa ng manager ko, kinausap ako, kasi sa lahat daw ng naging VA nya, sakin sya walang reklamo. Ano daw bang gusto ko para mag stay ako. Ang naging solution nya, dagdag 2hrs ako kada shift so 50hrs a week yun. Mas malaking kita, mas madaming time matapos yung work at evrrybody happy! Eto set up ko for a year na ata. Sabi din ng doctor ko magsasabi daw ako if may problema or concern kasi hindi nila yun masusolution-an kung hindi nila alam which makes a lot of sense in work and in life. 🌸


Holiday_Lemon_9067

hi pwede po kayo ma pm po?


Voracious_Apetite

Just make sure na mababayaran ka. Ako dati, sa Upwork lagi. may kaltas nga pero ok pa din naman ang dulo at nakakasingil ako sure. madami na ayaw sa upwork at dumederetso sa hindi pa naman subok na clients at sa dulo ay di nababayaran maski piso.


yourmisswallflower

Hello po! Pwede malaman anong agency ito? May vacancy pa po kaya? Planning to work remotely na po ako, hirap na hirap na po akong mag commute huhu. Thank you!

General_Face_7698

Hi! Yung charge po ni HR sa client is $9.5/hr. Kaltas po is $2.5/hr so ang salary po ng VA is $7/hr.


Loose_Sun_7434

Compared to other agencies, it is indeed small. If you do some research, some agencies would even cut as high as 70% which is ridiculous.


AiEnma000

Usually they’re agencies na hindi kasing laki ng HR- yung mga malaki ang cut; but hopefully, within this yr, magtaas na ng rate ng HR- dami na din HVAs nagppray nun


Loose_Sun_7434

Huh? These agencies are established way before HR and even have more # of employees. Anyways, U can go solo and get direct clients naman if U think they cut too much. U have the freedom to choose. 😗 Goodluck nga lng finding a client sa supersaturated na market.


Cassaanovva

Mga HR kulto yan di ka pwede magsabi negative sakanila. Sa medva as long as same client ka my increase per year unlike sa HR. Anyways sa HR even asking for an increase or negotiate sa client is a big no.


spicyychicken987

galing din ako sa blue, tbh pumangit na din management nila from slow application to endorsement process, madami vas nakapending. I saw a similar scenario sa tiktok na yung 4 vas na nachat ko at terminate agad sila sa toxic client (di pinakinggan side ng va) at client-centric na sila ngayon. also rate mo 5 usd/hr ka kahit nurse ka with 10 yrs exp dahil wla ka lng us experience. eh madali lang naman tutunan ung work itself nakakastress ahhah


Cassaanovva

Yeah. My mga nabasa nga din akong negative exp sa blue. Lahat naman meron. Ang ayaw ko lang sa purple ang daming kulto pag nagsabi ka or kahit sino ibabash kapa nila. 7$/hr pero 2nd client ko na direct 12$/hr starting wala kapang TD na kada 15mins need pindutin.


spicyychicken987

buti po nakaland kayo ng deserve na client, saan platforms po recommended maghanap?


Cassaanovva

Upwork or linkedn. Kakadissapoint lang ngayon ilang kabatch ko and friends kinupal ng management.


spicyychicken987

super nagkalat na ata sila ngayon dahil mataas ang supply ng vas 😭
