5 Lessons and Take away from Interviewing 15 VA’s This morning.
Communicate your expectations before the interview. Inform candidates that they will participate in role-playing exercises to assess their conversational skills and ability to handle challenging seller questions.
Conduct interviews via Google Meet or similar platforms to visually assess candidates and their equipment. This helps identify potential issues, such as poor internet connections or microphone problems, which is crucial since VAs represent your first interaction with potential sellers.
Allow candidates to introduce themselves as they would during an in-person interview. This provides valuable insights and helps identify potential red flags.
Perform a role-play scenario where you act as the cold caller. This demonstrates exactly what you expect regarding conversational style and rapport-building. Pay attention to candidates who rush through interactions without engaging in meaningful conversation.
Express gratitude for their time and show appreciation, regardless of the hiring decision.
