Need a Virtual Assistant Now? Here’s a Step-By-Step Guide

Having a good understanding of what your business needs help with is the first step on knowing what kind of a virtual assistant (VA) you can consider to employ. Finding the right VA is the challenging part and ZBiz Solutions understands the different steps involved in finding, recruiting, and onboarding an efficient and reliable VA.


Unsure on how the process works? Here is a step-by-step guide to get you started:


Step 1 - Lay out the tasks


What is eating up your time? What are your priorities? Where do you need help so you can focus on other tasks? What are your budget and time constraints?


Once you listed the answers to these questions, you can now match it with the list of skills your VA needs to have to fulfill the tasks that will be assigned. Do you need someone to handle a variety of administrative chores or should you look for people who have experience with things like bookkeeping or web research?


Step 2 - Create a job description


While ZBiz can provide you with experienced VAs specializing in different niches, our goal is to find you the perfect match. Listing out specific characteristics that you need from a VA will help shortlist potential candidates for the position.


  • Define their responsibilities. This will ensure that your VA has a clear understanding of what is expected of them. This will also help avoid misunderstandings that could lead to errors in future tasks. Additionally, defining responsibilities will help us provide a VA that will meet your expectations and satisfy your business needs.


  • Decide the type of employment. Do you want to bring in a permanent team member or do you just need the help of a freelancer to work on the specific task? This will help you decide whether a part-time or full-time position is required? Once identified, you are now ready to—


  • Determine the rate. What have you budgeted for the tasks that you want to outsource? For a full-time position, they would usually ask for the monthly rate especially since they will be working with you for eight hours in a day. For a part-time position, this will most likely be an hourly rate. While you review your company’s financial capacity to hire a VA, ZBiz Solutions will make sure that the rates will be competitive. Incentives and perks can also be considered a great add-on to the VA salary package.


Step 3 - Assessment and Onboarding
