About Boldly

• What is subscription staffing?

  It used to be that to get the most talented people to work for them, companies had to find, recruit, and employ talent directly, with the myriad complexities hiring entails, from legal to payroll to HR administration.

  But now a change has happened. Just as many of us subscribe to services like Netflix, or Amazon Prime for the convenience they offer, companies are now subscribing to the things they need to run their business. That includes subscribing to highly-qualified long-term staff, rather than employing them directly.

  Instead, subscription staffing company Boldly employs a team of world-class marketers, project managers, executive assistants, and more—and makes them available on a long-term basis, allowing businesses to quickly get hand-matched remote talent for the exact number of hours they need each month with the convenience of a simple monthly payment.

  Subscription staffing isn't just good for businesses, it's great for employees too. Boldly is a remote-first, employee focused company, offering our talented team the freedom to build their own schedules, work remotely, and contribute to amazing businesses while developing their own fulfilling careers.

• How is Boldly different from a virtual assistant company?

  Most VA companies will recruit you as a contractor/ freelancer with no benefits and no guarantee of work. You are usually part of an impersonal platform and put on a roster of available bodies to assist companies with random tasks. You never get to meet with the companies you support beforehand and there is no guarantee of the hours or the work that you’ll do. It’s hit and miss to say the least.

  At Boldy you are a W2 employee. This means our company works just like any other high performing company with the added benefit of being 100% remote with flexible hours. The companies that you support are committed long-term and you get to meet with the executives you'll be working with before you decide to work together, so that you can be sure it's a good match.

QUALIFYING TO JOIN BOLDLY

• Why are you only hiring in certain US states if the job is remote?

  Even though the job is remote, employment is based on the location that the work is performed, and as an employer there is a significant amount of administrative complexity and cost involved in managing employment in each state. As such, we have chosen a select number of states to hire in, which we review periodically.

We believe that everyone deserves to enjoy a rewarding and fulfilling career, and like you we want to work with kind, friendly, positive people who go to great lengths to support each other, and make it a pleasure to work together!

  Expect lots of communications with company news, team shares, quizzes, prizes, company-wide charity events, and celebrations.

• What is Boldly’s approach to diversity?

  Boldly’s number one value is kindness, and we place the highest priority on treating each other with kindness and respect, and on creating a culture where everyone feels welcome. To discriminate against anyone because of their age, race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy or childbirth, physical or mental disability, veteran status, uniformed service member status, or for any other reason is not only flat-out wrong, but it goes against everything we believe in.
  
  Boldly’s hiring process focuses on skill and experience and is based on a written process and documented criteria that removes unconscious bias from our screening and selection process. What matters to us is that you have the required skill and experience, that you are friendly and care deeply about doing a great job, and that treating others with kindness and respect is fundamental to you.

• Do I get to work with others on the team?

  Your primary contact will be your team leader who you'll meet with and speak with on a regular basis. We also work closely as a team, supporting each other, so even though we all work from different places, you'll “meet” team members as you share client projects, or as you provide vacation back up for each other….you’re never alone!
