Nov 2018My outdesk was proactive and responsive. We were presented with multiple, high quality, candidates to choose from and our expectations have been exceeded by the professionalism and quality we have received from Rowena. She is part of our team. We plan to add more VAs in the future.

Dec 2018We’ve been with MOD for 7 years now and couldn’t be happier. They matched us with two VA’s very quickly and the support we receive from them is invaluable. Highly recommended!!!

Feb 2022All I'm going to say is that my business has more than doubled in the first 3 months of working with Pearl, my very amazing VA from My MOD Desk. If you are stressed, weeded out from all the admin duties a business requires on a daily basis, or if you'd simply like to scale your business and have more time on your hands to make more money, then I DEFINITELY recommend hiring a VA from My MOD Desk. I don't know HOW I would successfully keep growing my Real estate company without my amazing VA Pearl. HUGE thank you to My MOD Desk for connecting me with my amazing Administrative Virtual Assistant! Pablo Ramirez, P.A. Real estate Broker-Associate United Realty Group, Inc.

FAQ
Common questions
How much does it cost to hire a recruiting virtual assistant?
With MyOutDesk you'll pay less than 70% of what you'd pay for an in-house recruiting coordinator, and we take care of all the recruiting, background checks, payroll & benefits for you.
What kind of tasks do recruiting virtual assistants handle?
Our recruiting VAs handle the full scope of hiring support: sourcing candidates across platforms like LinkedIn Recruiter, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter, screening resumes, coordinating interviews, managing your ATS (Workable, Greenhouse, Workday, BambooHR, Rippling, and more), following up with candidates, creating and managing job postings, and conducting background checks and reference verification.
Can a recruiting virtual assistant screen resumes?
Yes. Our recruiting VAs review and analyze incoming resumes and applications, highlight the most relevant skills and experience, and sort candidates by job-fit and your preferred criteria so your hiring managers only see the strongest applicants.
Can a recruiting VA coordinate interviews and scheduling?
Yes. They can organize and maintain your applicant database, track candidate information, and schedule interviews on behalf of all parties including hiring managers, panel interviewers, and candidates, eliminating the back-and-forth.
What hiring platforms can your VAs work with?
Our recruiting VAs have experience with major hiring platforms including LinkedIn Recruiter, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and Glassdoor. They also work within your existing ATS, whether that's Workable, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, BambooHR, or Rippling, to manage candidate pipelines and track hiring metrics.
Can a recruiting VA handle background checks and reference verification?
Yes. Our VAs can verify candidate credentials, contact references, verify employment history, and update applications with relevant notes and findings for your recruiters.
Will my recruiting virtual assistant be dedicated or shared?
All of our virtual assistants are dedicated to a single client. This allows them to fully learn your hiring process, understand your team culture and role requirements, and deliver consistent, high-quality recruiting support.
How quickly can we get started?
We can onboard a recruiting VA in as little as 7 days. We just need to understand your hiring needs, tools, and processes to find the right virtual assistant for you.
Do MyOutDesk virtual assistants use a password manager?
Yes. We require every VA to share and store credentials through a password manager - never in plain text, email, chat, or browser autofill. We can use the password manager your team already runs on (1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass, Dashlane, Keeper, or similar) or provide one. Access can be revoked instantly when the engagement ends.
Can I bring my own non-disclosure agreement (NDA)?
Yes, we are happy to work with you to get an NDA between your virtual assistant and your company signed. We also provide a default NDA that protects all our clients.
