Cost to Hire a Virtual Assistant in New York City
Unlike many virtual personal assistant companies in NYC that lock you into set plans with weekly or monthly minimums (and often keep your VA’s identity hidden until after you’ve signed up!), we do things differently.
You’ll receive personalized candidate matches and we’ll take care of all interview scheduling at no cost. If you choose to hire one of our candidates, we charge a one-time $750 Placement Fee—no ongoing plans or minimum commitments. You’ll enjoy direct communication with your VA, in whatever way works best for you.
You pay your PA their wages directly. A virtual assistant in NYC is typically looking for $30-50/hr.
