Your Personal Assistant
Do you think you need an assistant? Finding the right personal assistant is an individual and somewhat stressful process. Have a think about why you need an assistant. What duties will they carry out? Will they be overseeing them or actually doing them? What hours do you need them to put in? And then there's their salary. These things all need to be addressed before you even begin a search. Maybe you'll want an assistant who lives with you or maybe you'll prefer one who to work specified hours. It all comes down to your particular lifestyle choice and your requirements.
You can begin looking on the Internet. You can look at various personal assistant agencies and view freelance assistants online. If you go through an agency the assistants who are placed on by the agency are trained and vetted. If you opt for a freelance assistant not affiliated with an agency you'll have to check their work history, references and to be safe a criminal and background check. Once you've narrowed your candidates down to a short list, next up it's time to begin to grill your subjects.
The interview process is of vital importance when it comes to choosing the appropriate candidate. Here you will get a first impression of each client. First impressions last and you should trust your gut instincts. This will be a good time to ask your necessary questions, and get a picure of their work history, explain your requirements, and to also let them ask any questions they may have. Finally you'll ask them the make or break question. Ask them to tell you why they feel they are the best person for the job. After a few interviews you may already notice a few standouts or you may even have made your choice.
Then if you are ready to hire your personal assistant you should have some legally binding contracts drawn up by an attorney. These contracts should be bullet proof and protect both you and your employee from possible liabilities. They should state all the requirements and expectations of both parties. Then before commencing emploment your assistant will need to sign the contracts and submit any tax documents necessary such as W-4 forms or W-9 forms, depending on whether they are classified as your employee or as an independent contractor. Depending on the option you go for, you will either be responsible for subtracting taxes from your assistant's pay or they will be solely responsible for paying their own taxes as a self employed contractor.
