Interviews for Top Jobs at BELAY

Independent Contractor Interview

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at BELAY (Debre Zeyit) in Apr 2022

It involves a test where you watch a pre-recorded zoom call and complete the tasks you find are being “given” (reading between the lines is important here) by the person a virtual admin is working for.

Interview Questions

  • Experience with online tools (slack, Quickbooks, zoom, etc.)

Client Success Consultant Interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BELAY (Washington, DC)

Interview

All interviewers were welcoming, encouraging and informative. This was a thorough process (phone screen + 2 zoom interviews) but I felt that I was given a great opportunity to share my experience and learn about the company/role throughout.

Interview Questions

  • Describe your approach to customer service

I don’t know that we had any preconceived fears in working remotely, but I think generally speaking most organizations are fearful of remote workers because they fear productivity will decline. However, the fear is unwarranted. Statistics show that remote workers outperform their in-office peers due to lack of distractions (office parties, anyone?) and there’s an overall increased employee engagement and happiness due to reduced commutes and better work-life integration.

The hardest part of managing a remote workforce is creating and maintaining a dynamic culture. You must be intentional about setting expectations and over communicating. Your team will follow your leaders. So, make sure your leaders are transparent and available. Be willing to work together through multiple communication platforms like instant messaging and video conferencing. Accessibility builds trust and cohesion.

Yes, twice a year we pull every corporate team member together for a few days where we are inspired by guest speakers, encouraged by our own leaders and teammates, and celebrated by those we call friends, family, and coworkers. Additionally, we have quarterly on-sites in smaller groups to collaborate and work together and build unity.

From there, the candidate will interview with a member of the team he/she is applying for. The candidate will hear about “day in the life” and have an opportunity to ask questions of someone currently in the role. The BELAY team member is also looking for culture fit for the company and the team, as well as experience/knowledge that relates to the position.

One of the very first things a leader should do when starting a business is to clearly define their core values and identity. And that doesn’t mean just throwing together a generic mission statement and asking your employees to memorize it. For a culture to be compelling, it needs to be both unique and recognizable.

FAQ

Is it hard to get hired by Belay?

With nearly 5,000 people applying for a BELAY Virtual Assistant spot each quarter in 2019, we take our job seriously about who makes the cut. In fact, less than 4% of applicants are offered a contract making it harder to become a contractor with BELAY than getting into an Ivy League school.

Is Belay Solutions a real company?

BELAY is a legitimate company that gives you that opportunity. I must say that the client you’re matched with makes all the difference. One of my clients is amazing and gives me all the flexibility, trust, and doesn’t micromanage.
