ACHIEVING VIRTUAL FREEDOM 

With the ever-evolving age of technology comes new tools we can use to be able to work more efficiently and effectively in our jobs, businesses, and companies. One of those tools today is virtually hiring people who can work with and for us. This can be known as virtual assistance. By hiring someone either cities away from you or even across the globe, you can delegate tasks and accomplish more every day. 

You can hire people virtually through any of these ways:

1. Outsourcing Companies. You can reach out to a number of outsourcing companies online that you trust and discuss with them your need for a virtual employee. You may share some of your basic requirements like skills, time zone, country of preference (if any) and the rate you are willing to pay. They will do the job posting on your behalf and they will also handle most of the employee processes and performance monitoring for you.
2. Job Sites. If you are the type of person who is very hands-on to all operations related to your business or company, you may opt to do the job posting, yourself. You just select your preferred job site and create a job post complete with the details such as: basic tasks, roles and responsibilities, and work schedule. This may be a more tedious process since you will be the one to manage all applications and to screening and interviews. But the advantage of it is that you get to know the applicants personally and you can create better connections with them.
3. Websites for Freelancers. There are job sites and freelancing websites specifically made for people who are looking for side hustles. Normally, these websites host part-time or contractual positions and roles for people around the world. You may choose to post in any of the freelancing websites you see online to search for your ideal virtual employee.
4. Virtual Recruitment Services. There are teams and companies online offering this type of service. They will assign a dedicated team to screen candidates for you based on the job and role requirements you share with them. These people will handle all the nitty-gritty parts of recruitment. Once the perfect candidate is selected, they will now turn them over to you for your management. You may opt to use a virtual recruitment service to speed up your talent acquisition process.
