    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between a general VA and a technical VA?

    A general VA handles administrative tasks like email management and scheduling. A technical VA engineers systems: CRM automation, workflow integrations, API connections, and data architecture. For GoHighLevel and RevOps work, you need a technical specialist, not a generalist.

    How long does it take to hire and onboard a Filipino technical specialist?

    A structured hiring process takes 2-3 weeks: 1 week for sourcing and screening, 1 week for technical assessment and interviews, and 3-5 days for onboarding. With proper documentation and snapshot deployments, a technical VA can be productive within the first week.

    What skills should I look for when hiring a technical VA?

    Look for CRM platform expertise (GoHighLevel, HubSpot), automation tooling (n8n, Make, Zapier), API integration experience, data architecture knowledge, and strong written English. Bonus: voice AI platforms, Meta CAPI implementation, and sub-account snapshot deployment experience.
