Why We Decided to Conduct a Real-Time Skill Test for Our Candidates:

This week, a long-standing client who previously hired a VA through us needed another team member – a LinkedIn Operations Manager to handle their clients’ pages.

This growing agency manages dozens of LinkedIn pages for their clients. The first VA we recruited has already enabled them to “focus on what really matters” instead of chasing social media comments.

Usually, we use take-home skill tests, but this time, the primary requirement was quick response time under pressure. When managing multiple LinkedIn pages, you must respond quickly and with the appropriate tone for each client.

Our solution: an Excel spreadsheet with 40 different comments that candidates needed to respond to within just 20 minutes.

The standout candidate answered 38 comments in just 18 minutes, with each response being personalized and in the exact tone of the specific brand.
This test revealed real differences between candidates. Some focused on quantity, others on quality, while the winning candidate found the perfect balance.

The agency is already reporting improved engagement rates, and our client can finally focus on acquiring new clients instead of “wasting time on likes and comments.”
