Tips for Hiring a Personal Assistant / Virtual Assistant with a Team!

Posted 11-01-2008 at 11:11 AM by dbarnum

If you are like a lot of people today, you’re busy - very busy - with little or no time for other things. This could be due to any number of reasons; such as, too many hats to wear in your business, medical conditions or other lifestyle issues.

The solution is a personal assistant (PA), also referred to as a virtual assistant (VA), but not just any PA or VA. The best solution is one who has a team of helpers – plenty of people to help with a wider range of tasks and to get tasks completed in a timely manner, in case holidays come up, sick time, internet connection issues, etc. Increased experienced help means a better prepared workforce covering a wider range of tasks is on hand, conquering your tasks.

Process of Hiring

Enlisting help is a great help to maximize their time as well as their energy, yours. To effectively hire your own PA / VA and team, it helps to start with these three steps:

Step 1) Write down the description of the work or tasks that you’d like your helpers to do. Include any software requirements, like using Microsoft Word and Excel, as examples.

Step 2) Advertise your need for help depending on your requirements. You can do this by placing a small advertisement in the local newspaper, on classified ad sites like Craigslist.com or on forums you frequent in your fields of interests / niches. You can also post on freelance sites like Elance.com. Make sure that you include your contact details so the applicant can reach you easily in your ads and in profiles on websites.

Step 3) Make a list of several of the top applicants, comparing their resumes, credentials, experience, client feedback, any ratings (at sites like Elance) and work samples. Jot notes down for handy reference, making your own ratings sheet.


There is a lot more to outsourcing. So stay tuned for more!
