How to Hire a VA?
 Following on from the initial consultation between Virtual Assistants UK and the client, there are a number of steps taken throughout the hiring process to ensure the correct individual fills this VA position. 


A job description is requested from clients which will be used to find the best fit for the position. Information is requested about the business, as well as separate sections covering points such as the hours required and what type of tasks they would like their VA to undertake.


Our team of hiring experts will thoroughly go through our database and match the job description with suitable VA profiles. When a client is satisfied with the shortlisted candidates, virtual interviews can begin to be scheduled.
Once interviews have wrapped up, the client is generally in a position to hone in on the candidate that they feel really fit for their business requirements. At this stage, Virtual Assistants UK will issue the client with an estimate as well as the service level agreement. Once happy to proceed, the client is asked to complete this agreement and can begin their journey with their new VA.
