We’re serious about only taking on the best Virtual Assistants in the UK. That’s why our selection process is so rigorous. Here’s what we do.

EVALUATION & REFERENCES
We don’t just look at our VAs’ education and experience. We review references and get feedback from former employers and clients.
SUITABILITY CHECK
We make sure our VAs are geared up to work remotely. This means assessing everything from the tools they use to their internet speed, as well as their personality types (MBTI) and their workspace – in addition to their motivations and ambitions.

INTERVIEW STAGE
Once everything checks out on paper, we carry out a video-based assessment of each candidate. If they pass, we hold a telephone interview, and finally, a direct interview with our Recruitment Manager.
BACKGROUND CHECK
We leave no stone unturned. Our final step is to run a number of security checks on each VA – including an independently-verified 360 identity check by Veriphy.
