Frequently asked questions
Will an executive assistant need access to private information?
The role often involves sensitive calendars, correspondence, or business documents. Decide which information the assistant may access, use appropriate account permissions, and set clear expectations for storage, sharing, and escalation.
Can an executive assistant arrange travel?
Travel coordination can include comparing options, booking approved arrangements, and preparing an itinerary. Tell the assistant your approval process, preferred travel details, and what to do if plans change.
Which time zones can the role cover?
Candidates in the Philippines work US, Australian, UK or European business hours, and each job post says the schedule. Agree the daily overlap before you hire, and remember the clock shifts when the US or Europe changes its time.
How do I pay someone abroad?
Most employers pay by Wise, Payoneer or a bank transfer. Agree the method, the rate and the payment dates before work starts, and keep the invoices for your own records.
Is this person my employee or my contractor?
Most people hired abroad work as independent contractors: you pay an agreed rate and they handle their own taxes and benefits. If you want an employment relationship, check the rules where you are hiring from or use an employer of record.
Does WorkNow charge a placement fee?
