Scale Your Recruitment Efforts
Our recruiting virtual assistants work alongside your HR team to source candidates, screen resumes, schedule interviews, and manage your hiring pipeline so you can find top talent faster.
Hiring is one of the most time-intensive processes in any business. Sorting through hundreds of resumes, coordinating interviews, and keeping candidates engaged requires dedicated focus, and it never stops.
Our recruiting virtual assistants are trained to handle the heavy lifting of your hiring process: posting jobs, screening candidates, scheduling interviews, managing your ATS, and supporting onboarding, so your HR team can focus on strategic talent decisions.
MyOutDesk recruiting VAs are carefully vetted and experienced in HR workflows, saving you up to 70% the cost of a traditional in-house recruiting coordinator.
Built for HR Teams
We work with human resources departments and professional employer organizations (PEOs) across the country, helping them scale their recruiting capacity without adding headcount. Whether you're staffing for a single client or managing hiring across dozens of accounts, our recruiting VAs integrate directly into your workflows and ATS.
Stop losing top talent to slow pipelines. Our VAs proactively source qualified candidates so your recruiters can focus on closing hires.
Your recruiters shouldn't spend hours sifting through unqualified applicants. We screen every resume so only the strongest candidates reach your desk.
Eliminate scheduling bottlenecks that slow down your hiring. Our VAs manage the logistics so your team can focus on evaluating talent.
Candidate ghosting kills your pipeline. Our VAs keep every applicant engaged with timely, professional communication that protects your employer brand.
Get more qualified applicants from every posting. Our VAs craft compelling job ads and manage them across every platform that matters.
Protect your organization from bad hires. Our VAs verify credentials and references so you can extend offers with confidence.

MyOutDesk is the best company out there. Hiring a VA is tough and finding a good one is almost impossible it seems sometimes. With MyOutDesks strict standards and pre screening you truly just have to find a fit for your company because the rest of the screening has been done for you. Highly recommend!!!
