Virtual assistants are becoming more common day by day. Unfortunately, most businesses are yet to learn how to go about sourcing a VA. One thing that we all know is the fact that the hiring process takes work and consumes a lot of time. You advertise a job opening, receive hundreds of applications, conduct numerous interviews, and then land on a VA who stays just a few days. That is frustrating, right?
Today, I have the privilege of hosting Bob Lachance. He owns Reva LCC, which offers virtual assistants for the real estate and medical industries. Bob and his company ensure that we have skilled and trained virtual assistants. His company sources VAs from the Philippines.
