Notes from the founder

The Vita blog.

How we hire. Why we source the way we do. What it's actually like to work with us. Written by Nathan, not a marketing team.

Founder note

Why I built Vita Talent Recruiting (and the $40,000 I burned getting there).

Three VA agencies, three failed hires, a year I'm not getting back. Here's what broke each time, and why I ended up starting my own staffing company instead of suffering through a fourth.

How we work

Why we source acquisition managers from Egypt (and ISAs from LatAm).

The country you pull talent from is half the hire. Here's the matchups we run, the reasoning behind each one, and which countries we will not pull from no matter how cheap the labor is.

How we work

The 5 step vetting process every Vita candidate goes through.

Sourced, screened, tested, signed off, shortlisted. For every 100 operators we screen, 1 makes it to your interview. Here's exactly what cuts the other 99, and why the test most agencies skip is the one that matters most.

How we work

Why Vita operators stay when another offer appears.

Retention is the part of staffing nobody talks about. Most agencies place a hire and disappear. Here's what we do for the first 30 days, the first 90, and why our placements stick.

Founder note

Meet the Lead Recruiter behind every Vita placement.

Ten years in offshore placement. Every candidate receives a personal review before reaching your inbox. Here is what our Lead Recruiter checks for that most recruiters miss.
