Vault Spray Foam is a local spray foam insulation company in Alabama, owned by Taylor Tessillians. The business was growing, and Taylor wanted to add capacity without stretching himself thin. He needed an executive assistant who could also carry marketing and admin work, a role wide enough that the fit had to be right rather than close enough.
How can a growing home services company hire an executive assistant who also covers marketing and admin without settling for a close-enough fit?
Growing the business meant Taylor needed support before the workload caught up with him. The position spanned executive assistant duties plus marketing and admin, so the person had to cover a lot. Finding that person felt overwhelming, and Taylor wanted a hire who checked every box, not just most of them.
An organized, persistent search that kept going until it found an executive assistant who fit every requirement.
Taylor needed an executive assistant who could also handle marketing and admin. Because the role was so broad, he was clear that the right fit mattered more than a quick, close-enough hire.
From the first call, Remote Latinos kept the search organized, staying on top of the schedule, setting up interviews, and running skills tests. The first two or three candidates were strong, but when Taylor was not fully sold, the team kept digging and quickly found someone who checked every box. Candidates came from several countries with strong skill sets and good availability.
Communication ran late into the evening when it mattered, and Taylor named the communication, coaching, and strategy as the best part of the experience. At the time of the case study the hire had not started yet, so the result reflects the fit and the speed of the search.
Vault Spray Foam hired an executive assistant who also handles marketing and admin. Owner Taylor Tessillians needed one person who could cover a wide range of tasks so he could keep growing the business without stretching himself thin.
About 20 days from the launch call to the right hire. During that time Remote Latinos managed the schedule, set up interviews, and ran skills tests, keeping the search organized from the first call.
The first two or three candidates were strong, but Taylor was not fully sold. Remote Latinos kept digging and quickly found a candidate who checked every box, which Taylor said he appreciated.
Taylor saw candidates from several countries, all with strong skill sets and good availability. Because most of Latin America shares or closely overlaps U.S. time zones, remote talent there can work alongside a U.S. business during the regular workday.
"Even when I wasn't 100% on the first candidates, I appreciated you continuing to dig and finding me somebody very quickly that ended up checking every box."
