Questions about hiring a virtual executive assistant
Can a virtual executive assistant work my time zone?
Yes. We recruit for your required overlap window and confirm it during screening. Most US clients get at least 4–8 hours of live overlap.
How do I give access without sharing passwords?
Managed VAs are set up with a password manager and delegated access, so you never send raw passwords and can revoke access in one click.
How long does it take to hire a virtual executive assistant?
Most placements take about 14 days from discovery call to start date, including skills testing and your finalist interviews.
What does it cost?
A one-time placement fee ($2,000–$3,000 depending on plan) plus the VA’s hourly wage. Managed plans add a monthly fee of $300 for the first VA plus $75 for each additional VA.
