Understanding the "Position Filled with VPM" Note in Job Applications

Inquiry: When someone is applying for a job we have posted, what does "This assistant currently has a position filled with VPM" mean? Does this indicate they have been hired by someone else already?

Answer:

  • The note "This assistant currently has a position filled with VPM" indicates that the virtual assistant is currently contracted by another company.
  • It does not necessarily mean the assistant is unavailable:
    • They could be working part-time with the other company.
    • The company they worked for might have forgotten to officially close the position, meaning they may no longer be active with that employer.
  • It is a good idea to reach out to the applicant directly to verify their availability and ensure no conflicts with their current position.

Feel free to contact the applicant for clarification!
