I created a condensed, step by step guide on how to hire your own VA! There’s only 24 hours in a day and honestly, you won’t have enough time to do everything on your own if you want a fully functional and organized business. It’s the only reason why I was able to build three businesses, it was because I had help.

In this video, I’ll break down what you need to do in order to successfully hire a VA.

1. Sign Up

I recommend Onlinejobs.ph because that’s what I personally use and I’ve hired great employees from there. It’s also a great platform to hire fulltime VAs. If you decide to go with onlinejobs.ph, you would want to go for the paid memberships. It’s not a scam website and going for a paid membership was one of the best decisions I have ever made.

2. Post Your Job

When doing this, you’re going to want to add some special instructions somewhere in your job post to ensure that the person applying actually read it through. Examples of this would be having them change the title of their message, or adding a few details about them. The reason you should do this is because you want to know who is serious and who is not serious about working for you.

3. Interview

Go through the messages and choose the candidates you like. It’s best to do this via video call so you get to see how fast their internet speed is, how they respond to your questions, their thinking, and if they live up to what they say in their resumes.

4. Sample Project

Give them a sample project before you hire them. You get to see how they work, how fast they work, and the quality of their work. This is also a way to see if they will like their job and if you work well with them.

5. Hire Them

This step is very simple, all you need to do is to send them a message that they’re hired. If you’re worried how to pay them, I personally pay my VAs through PayPal. The type of tasks you should give your VAs are the repetitive tasks, video editing, and blog posts.
