Hiring a writer is easy. Hiring a great writer is a job in itself. Our VAs take the entire recruitment workload off your plate.

JD Creation & Distribution

We draft enticing, specific job descriptions that repel low-quality AI-grinders and attract high-level industry experts across all major platforms.

Portfolio & Fact-Checking

The VA verifies byline authenticity, checks for AI usage or plagiarism in samples, and ensures the writer's past work actually matches your required niche.

Paid Test Article Mgmt

We coordinate the assignment of paid test articles, handle payment logistics, and compile the final results into a comparative scorecard for you.

Interview Scheduling

No more email tag. The VA manages your calendar, sends Zoom invites, and prepares a "Candidate Brief" for you to review 5 minutes before the call.

Rate Negotiation

The VA handles the delicate conversation of per-word or per-project rates, ensuring you get top talent within your established budget range.

Contractor Onboarding

Setting up the hired writer in your Slack, Notion, and Task Manager. We ensure they have your style guide and access before their first deadline.

Professional Scouting vs. "Post & Pray."

Don't settle for mediocre writers who require 5 rounds of edits. Build a high-performance content engine with managed sourcing.

Unmanaged Sourcing

  • The "AI Application" Flood

    You'll get 500+ bot-generated applications within 24 hours. Without a VA to filter them, you'll waste days reading garbage.

  • Bait-and-Switch Portfolios

    Unvetted writers often show samples they didn't actually write. You find out too late—after you've paid them.

  • Recruitment Fatigue

    Because it's exhausting, you hire the first "decent" person. Six months later, you realize they are slowing down your growth.

Managed Talent

Talent Sourcing FAQs

How do you test a writer's actual quality?
We follow a 3-step vetting process. First, the VA audits their past bylines for topical authority. Second, we assign a short, 300-word "Paid Writing Logic Test" to see how they handle instructions. Third, for finalists, we coordinate a full-length paid test article which your Project Manager reviews for tone, flow, and AI usage.
Who pays for the job ads and test articles?
You do. To maintain our strictly transparent $6-$7/hr rate, any external expenses like ProBlogger job board fees or payments to writers for test articles are paid by you. The VA manages the entire process—setting up the accounts, drafting the posts, and handling the communication—while you remain in control of the budget.
Can the VA also manage the writers once they are hired?
Absolutely. This is the next natural step. Once the "Sourcing" phase is complete, your VA can transition into "Content Coordination"—managing the hired writers' deadlines, sending briefs, performing initial formatting checks, and ensuring your content calendar remains full.
