To find a driven and motivated virtual assistant to help us with various tasks in our rapidly growing short term rental management company.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After looking for a virtual assistant and hiring one that didn't work out we heard about MOD. Once we spoke with them about their hiring process and strict hiring/training procedures I knew we found the right company and they have only validated our decision since then.

Describe the engagement in detail.

We had a consultation to determine what our needs were as a company and what type of person we were looking to hire. We were given lots of good advice and feedback and a date for interviews with our new candidates that were screened and selected by MOD.

What is the status of the engagement?

Month to month.

What was the team composition?

Initially I had a call with a sales rep who answered all my questions and made sure we were a fit for each other. Then I was assigned to an account manager who helped me through the entire hiring process. Once I selected my VA to hire I was assigned a case manager and they are available and in contact with me regularly to this day.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the engagement that demonstrate progress or success?

We interviewed 4 candidates who were all qualified and competent. From those 4 I would have gladly hired 3 of them. I hired one and the candidate has exceeded our expectations. The assistant is now a vital part of our company after only a few short months. The assistant had all of the necessary skills to thrive with minimal training from us.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Very easy and effective.

What did you find most impressive about this company?
