Hiring virtual assistants for government contracting is the delegation move most small business owners skip, and it is quietly the difference between winning contracts and staying stuck doing everything alone.
In this GovCon Giants community session, Eric Coffie and his team break down exactly how they find, filter, interview, and train the people who do the research and outreach behind their federal contracting pursuits.
You do not need to win a contract first to start building the team that helps you win, and this episode shows you the real system Eric and Brandon use.
In this episode you will learn:
Why you should start hiring and running job posts before you ever win a government contract, because experimenting with delegation builds the team that wins later
The simple resume filter Eric uses to instantly spot applicants who actually read the job post versus the ones blasting automated applications
The open-Zoom interview method that lets you run back-to-back candidate interviews over two days without the scheduling headache
How to vet a virtual assistant by demanding proof of real work and testing communication and organization, not just reading the words on a resume
Why Eric refuses to hire anyone who will not use AI, and how he uses Loom videos to train his team and assign research tasks in minutes
How to walk into meetings with large companies and project authority and confidence even when you are new to the process
