It was okay. The recruiter was responsive and she made the process seamless. She gave feedback at all times. Before the actual interview with the client we had a 10 min interview for preparation and it made the nerves ease up

My experience with Somewhere.com has been very positive. The team has been professional, supportive, responsive and efficient. Communication has been clear, and I’ve always felt kept up to date. Even though I haven’t been placed yet, I’m confident that it’s only a matter of time, as they share a wide range of remote Executive Assistant opportunities daily. What I’ve appreciated most is how smooth and transparent the process has been, particularly during the reference check, which was handled quickly and with great professionalism. Overall, I’ve had a great experience and would recommend Somewhere.com to anyone looking for remote EA or VA roles.
