Frequently Asked Questions
Employers
We want to keep this process as stress free as possible, so all communication with the RTM’s is done through us. After conducting the interviews, you are welcome to put these people through a certain skill test (you can also send a skill test before the interviews) and if they pass, it is time to hire! This whole process normally takes a week, at most 10 business days.
A full-time position is someone who will work between 30-40 hours per week. They focus on working in the business every single weekday. Weekends are off unless instructed on the interviews that this is a must, and the RTM agrees.
They truly NEED a remote team member to take a load off their back. It is a top priority for them to find A players. Whether it is appt setters, media buyers, graphic designers, data entry people, whatever it is… These people that are looking to hire whatever role they are looking for BECOME that role first before hiring. They dictate what the day to day looks like, what KPI must be met, and overall what this job will entail. They are not guessing. Data is what these business owners follow, not their emotions.
Overall the owners build the right SOP’s, processes, and KPI’s around the role they are seeking, so whenever the time comes to hire someone, the person has a roadmap for succession.
The unlimited offer is exactly what it sounds like, hire as many people as you need for the year. The pay her hire package is only up to 3 hirings, and does not have unlimited replacements. For more context on costs, book a call with our team.
We have placed many different types of roles in the last year and one of the most popular roles is appt setting. Instead of having the sales rep send a ton of emails/messages, the RTM takes over so the sales rep can focus on being on calls and closing more deals. For instance, our best appt setters book 10-20 appts a week! Appt setter is just one of the many positions we offer. If you need some graphic design work done, we can help. What about media buying and taking over your current ads, we got you covered.
The most important thing to remember is that when you are looking to grow the business it is an absolute MUST to find A players. This starts with your RTM team since they are normally the first hirings an online business makes.
Without happy clients/RTM’s we do not have a business. We have been able to build a business (front end and back end) purely on word of mouth. Remote Latinos is here to provide world class talent to world class businesses all done with the highest intent of integrity.
