First, the basics

To be considered, you'll need to…

Requirements
  • Reside 100% in the United States or Canada
  • Pass our vetting process and respond within the given timeframes
  • Have reliable, high-speed internet
  • Not currently be working with one of our clients
Before you apply

Every posting is fully transparent — each includes employment type (W-2 or 1099), benefits (if available), hours, pay rate, and other details. Please only apply to positions that:

  • Align with your qualifications
  • Meet your needs (pay, hours, etc.)
  • Fulfill our client's requirements
The application & vetting process

A thorough process — because the match matters.

Our application process is unique and includes an extensive vetting process. We're dedicated to finding the perfect match for our clients — helping talented individuals like you become a valuable part of their teams.

We've created a detailed video outlining each step, from your initial application to the final interview with a client. Once matched, you'll join the Great Assistant family, where we provide free training and support to help you excel in your new role.

Watch the overview

Application process for returning candidates
If you've applied and completed the assessments in the past year, you may not need to retake them. However, you must still apply and complete the application form for the specific position you're interested in. If selected to move forward, you'll complete the additional vetting steps shown in the video. Please note: if you're currently working with one of our clients, we can't consider you for another position.
What to expect next
If you're shortlisted, you'll receive an email with instructions for the next step. Due to the high volume of applications, we're unable to respond to everyone — we'll only contact you if your application progresses. Please do not contact our clients directly; doing so will disqualify your application.
Assessments & secure links
As part of our process, you may need to complete assessments through secure links provided by Great Assistant. These links are essential and are verified for your safety.

A note on your safety. Great Assistant will never ask for payment or fees at any stage of the hiring process. If you receive any such request, do not proceed — report it to us immediately. We post roles on our official site (greatassistant.com) and on reputable job boards including LinkedIn, FlexJobs, and Manatal, and we reach out only from our official Great Assistant email addresses. A posting on one of those boards is legitimate — but anyone asking you for money, or contacting you from an unofficial address, is not us.

Open positions

Be a valued member of the Great Assistant family.

Join our successful Great Assistants and elevate your career — flexible schedules, 100% remote, and a focus on professional growth. If you excel at communication, time management, and making an impact, apply to become an invaluable asset to a growing entrepreneur.
