What clients are saying about our HR gurus
I was in desperate need of administrative support as my arts-based sole proprietorship grew too big to handle on my own – but creating a job post, vetting candidates, and conducting job interviews would’ve only made my already overwhelming workload MORE unmanageable… Virtual Gurus eliminated all that time and energy of recruitment, and quickly provided a qualified candidate to assist me ASAP – and provide helpful guidance on how best to collaborate remotely. (…) VG levels the playing field for small businesses looking to upgrade their systems with talented support staff – even if you can’t provide full-time hours.
