Hiring a candidate virtually is not as common as most people believe. A lot should go into the process, including scanning job boards and other websites for independent contractors, shortlisting candidates, conducting interviews, running background checks, contacting references, administering tests, etc.

While we do provide our regular customers a discount, we do not give a discount for using more than one VA.

Definitely not on a regular basis should this occur. Your virtual assistant that you find through the VA Staff service will be proficient in English and have excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the rare exception that your VA may ask for basic explanations on some matters. Additionally, they will have expertise in their particular responsibilities for you.

Although we do provide part-time VAs, many applicants are more interested in full-time jobs. Your job description must make clear that you can eventually promote your VA to a full-time role.

The majority of VAs like to work during regular business hours, which are 8 am to 5 pm, however, it is up to your VA and you to decide when it is most convenient for both of you.

Typically, our hiring process takes 7–14 days. It may take a bit longer, though, depending on the degree of expertise you want, the applicants we currently have on hand, and how soon you respond with crucial details like your description, etc.

You’ll agree, we’re sure, that it’s occasionally beneficial to put in a few additional days to discover the right candidate.
