Verifying Virtual Assistants:  Hiring the Right Cyberhelp for Your Business

Experienced Virtual Assistants Form Company to Guarantee Your Satisfaction with Your Next VA Hire

Philadelphia, PA Friday September 16, 2011 -  Virtual assistants (VA’s) are an economical, efficient solution to the staffing needs of businesses striving for lower overhead costs in today’s challenging economic climate.  These virtual employees, however, are only a bargain when they are truly the highly skilled professionals they claim to be.

When asked how an employer might guarantee the professional ability of a virtual assistant (VA), Nickey Hollenbach, Managing Member of Personal Touch Concierge Service, LLC, replies, “Employers should take the same precautions in hiring a VA as they would a permanent employee:  interview the person at length, request and review samples of their work, check multiple professional references, Google the person and read online reviews regarding their services, and perhaps even go so far as a background check.  Another option is to engage a company such as TheRightVA.com.”  

Hollenbach explains, “Frustrated by the claims made by unscrupulous, unethical or unskilled individuals who bill themselves as VA’s I, along with several other highly regarded VA’s, have recently formed TheRightVA.com.  Through this website, employers can locate a VA with the verified skills necessary to meet their needs.”  

Hollenbach’s associate Nancy Calandra, also an accomplished VA, describes TheRightVA.com as, “The website operates similar to an online dating service by matching VA's to business owners.  TheRightVA.com takes the guesswork out of hiring VA’s.  Since TheRightVA.com enlists only the top experienced professionals in the industry, a company can rest assured that the virtual assistant to whom they are matched can provide the help they are seeking.”

Calandra says, “When building our business model for TheRightVA.com, we knew we wanted flexible options for our clients.  Employers can choose to simply be supplied with a list of appropriate VA’s or they can request the more personalized service of a “placement specialist.” This “placement specialist” will work closely with the employer and narrow his choice of VA’s to a manageable number of highly qualified and immediately available assistants.”

By any means, Calandra warns, “Employers seeking virtual assistants must be cautious.”  Like Hollenbach, Calandra warns employers to take every precaution to make certain that a “virtual hire” is professional, highly-skilled, and ethical.  Using a service like TheRightVA.com may give many employers the increased convenience and confidence they need to pursue virtual hiring and grow their businesses in an affordable, cost-effective manner.
