YOUR RECRUITING TEAM'S EXTRA HANDS
A Dedicated VA Trained for Recruiting, Not Generic Admin
Recruiting looks like a people job, but a lot of the day gets eaten by process: updating records, coordinating calendars, chasing follow-ups. None of that requires a recruiter’s judgment, yet it still has to get done accurately and on time, or the whole pipeline slows down.
That’s where a dedicated recruitment VA fits in. Instead of splitting this work across your team’s already full schedule, or letting it pile up, one person owns it consistently. Your hiring team gets its time back for the parts of recruiting that actually need a human making a call: interviews, candidate conversations, and final decisions.
Sourcing & Screening Support
Your VA supports the sourcing and screening workload, helping build candidate lists, doing first-pass resume reviews against your criteria, and keeping your pipeline moving so qualified candidates don’t sit untouched for days.
Interview Coordination & ATS Management
Scheduling interviews across multiple candidates and interviewers eats hours every week. Your VA owns that coordination end to end, along with keeping your ATS accurate and current, so your pipeline data actually reflects where things stand.
LinkedIn Outreach & Candidate Communication
From managing LinkedIn messages and connection follow-ups to sending candidate updates and status emails, your VA keeps communication moving so candidates aren’t left waiting and your team isn’t buried in routine messages.
ONE DEDICATED PERSON, NOT A REVOLVING DOOR
A VA Who Actually Learns Your Hiring Process
A freelance VA picked up for a few hours a week rarely gets deep enough into your process to be genuinely useful. Our recruitment VAs work consistently with your team, which means they learn your ATS, your screening criteria, and how your hiring managers like to communicate, so they get faster and more accurate over time instead of starting from scratch every session.
They’re trained specifically for recruiting work, not general admin, which means less onboarding on your end and fewer mistakes in a process where mistakes cost you good candidates.
Our Assistance Process
How Can Our Team Help You to Reach Your Goals
Discovery Call
We learn your hiring workflow, current tools, ATS setup, and where your team is losing the most time to admin work.
VA Matching & Onboarding
We assign a VA suited to your recruiting needs and get them set up with access to your ATS, LinkedIn, and any other tools your process depends on.
Day-to-Day Support Begins
Your VA starts handling sourcing support, screening, scheduling, and candidate communication, working inside your existing process rather than a separate one.
Ongoing Check-Ins
We check in regularly to review workload, output, and whether the VA’s scope needs to adjust as your hiring needs change.
TRANSPARENT VA PRICING
Hourly or Retainer Whichever Fits Your Workload
A recruitment VA is available at $9 per hour for ad hoc or lower-volume support, or as a $1,000 to $1,200 per month retainer for a dedicated resource covering roughly 160 hours, working out to a lower effective hourly rate than booking hours individually.
- Full access to enterprise recruiting tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, ZoomInfo, Apollo, Lusha) at no extra cost
- ATS integration, so your VA works inside the systems you already use
- Support aligned to your working hours and time zone
- A dedicated VA who works consistently with your team, not a rotating pool

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a recruitment virtual assistant actually do?
A recruitment VA handles the recurring, process-heavy parts of hiring that don’t require a recruiter’s judgment call but still take real time. That typically includes:
- Sourcing and screening support
- Interview scheduling and coordination
- ATS data entry and pipeline updates
- LinkedIn outreach and candidate follow-up
- Recruitment admin, reporting, and status updates
The goal is to take repetitive work off your hiring team’s plate so they can spend their time on interviews, decisions, and candidate relationships, the parts of hiring that actually need a person with judgment.
How much does a recruitment VA cost compared to hiring locally?
A full-time, US-based in-house recruiting coordinator typically runs well into five figures a year once salary, benefits, and overhead are factored in. A recruitment VA through RediRecruit costs $9 per hour, or $1,000 to $1,200 per month on a retainer covering roughly 160 hours. For most companies, that’s a significant reduction in cost for the same day-to-day recruiting support, without the overhead of a full-time hire.
What's the difference between hourly and monthly retainer pricing?
Hourly pricing ($9/hour) makes sense if your VA workload is inconsistent, some weeks busy, some quiet, or if you’re just starting to test whether VA support is a fit.
The monthly retainer ($1,000 to $1,200/month for around 160 hours) works out to a lower effective hourly rate and makes more sense once your VA is consistently working close to full-time hours. It also means the same person is available and familiar with your process every week, rather than being booked inconsistently.
Can a recruitment VA work during my business hours?
Yes. VA support is scheduled around your working hours and time zone, not the VA’s default schedule. This is set up during onboarding, so your VA is available when your hiring managers and candidates actually need them, whether that’s US business hours, UK hours, or another region entirely.
What tools or access do I need to give my VA?
Typically, your VA needs access to whatever your team already uses to run recruiting, most commonly your ATS, LinkedIn Recruiter seat (or we can provide access), and email or calendar tools for scheduling. We’ll walk through exactly what’s needed during onboarding based on your specific setup. You control what access is granted and can adjust it at any time.
How is a recruitment VA different from a freelance VA I'd hire on my own?
A freelance VA hired independently usually comes with no recruiting-specific training, no oversight if something goes wrong, and often juggles multiple clients at once, which can affect availability and consistency.
A RediRecruit recruitment VA is trained specifically for recruiting workflows, backed by our sourcing and ATS tools at no extra cost to you, and managed on our end, so if there’s ever an issue with fit or performance, it gets handled without you having to start a new hiring search of your own.
