Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/01/2012 -- Hiring is always a time-consuming exercise, whether the person you wish to hire is a local resource or someone who inhabits another country and continent, as is the case with outsourcing. Either way, the entire process makes demands on your time, energy and resources. Within outsourcing, searching for a suitable remote resource is doubly intimidating and understandably fraught with its own unique challenges and pitfalls. If you are looking to hire someone known as a virtual employee, then you need to find a reliable vendor who can help you find one.

VirtualEmployee(http://www.virtualemployee.com), one of India's top outsourcing company, has been the first to pioneer the revolutionary concept of the virtual employee. So, when a company outsources with this vendor, they get their very own dedicated resource who works for them like a full-time, permanent employee. The best part is this service provider's unique client-centric recruitment model that involves every client very closely in the entire hiring process.

The recruitment service offered by http://www.VirtualEmployee.com comes in two options – the Free recruitment service and the Gold recruitment service to keep up with the high volume of requests that pour in from business partners all around the globe. With the Gold service, a client can race past other clients who are as eager to hire a virtual employee for the same job description. So, if you want to hire a content writer, your chances of bagging one go significantly higher if you opt for the paid recruitment service.

When a client submits their job description for the vacancy they wish to fill, this vendor's HR executives start searching for suitable candidates then submit these resumes to you. You review the resumes and further shortlist the candidates you would like to interview and/ or test. After the interviews/ tests, it is entirely up to you to hire any of the candidates. If you are not satisfied even then, then the whole process is simply repeated all over again with a fresh batch of resumes.

However, how fast you get your candidate depends on the kind of recruitment service you have opted for. Of course, certain services are common to both options, such as receiving candidate resumes, conduct interviews, and assign tests. The other aspects, however, vary.

Free Recruitment Service – The number of HR executives assigned to a client who has opted for the Free recruitment service varies and is subject to availability since the vacancy priority is accorded to the clients who have opted for the Gold recruitment service. This applies also to the number if candidates screened by the HR department, making the turnaround time for every job vacancy a variable affair. Recruitment progress updates is absent as is the lack of senior management overview. The references and background checks of candidates in this option is also limited, while the technical round of screening and research and analysis of the said vacancy is entirely at the discretion of the HR executives.

Gold Recruitment Service - Clients can upgrade their recruitment option to the Gold recruitment service for which a fee of US$49.95 is charged. The most significant advantages of the Gold recruitment service is the high level of priority that the client enjoys as far as their job vacancy is concerned. The number of HR executives working on this client's vacancy is considerably more, the vacancy itself is accorded a higher priority, and the turnaround time for resumes submission is faster. What's more, recruitment progress updates are regularly submitted to the client while technical and senior project management gets involved in personally screening and conducting the first round of candidate interviews. The reference and background checks carried out on candidates is much more thorough an research and analysis of the job vacancy is done as well.

The main reason for having two options in the recruitment service is that VirtulEmployee.com receives a lot of requests for hiring a virtual employee, and many times for identical job descriptions. Naturally, clients who have opted for the Gold recruitment service get top priority, making it easy for the HR department to prioritize.
