How the new scheduler works Example
1 · You add open hours once
You open Mon 6:00–8:00 PM. Manila sees it as Tue 10:00 AM–12:00 PM.
2 · You invite 5 applicants. Each one gets the same open times.
3 · They pick a time (your time, Phil time underneath)
Maria booked 6:00 PM. It’s gone for the other four, so nobody gets double-booked.
Finding a time used to mean proposing two options for each applicant, waiting for replies, and converting AM and PM across time zones. Now you set your open hours once, and every applicant you invite picks from them.
On the Interviews tab, pick a day and a time range in your own time zone. We split it into 30-minute times and show you what that is in the Philippines before you save, so you always know what time it is for them.
Open an applicant’s profile and choose Invite to Interview. Every invite offers the same open times, so there’s nothing to retype. Pick 30 or 60 minutes, edit the starter note if you like, and see the exact email they’ll get before you send it.
The first applicant to pick a time gets it, and that time disappears for everyone else. You both get an email with a video link that opens in the browser, with nothing to install, plus a reminder on the day of the call.
Important note
Worried about night hours in the Philippines? Some employers hesitate to offer times that fall at night or around midnight there. You don’t need to: most Filipino VAs work on their client’s time zone, so evening and overnight hours are standard for them. Asking an applicant which time suits them is still a thoughtful touch that shows you care, but you can offer your normal business hours.
Applicant cards now show just the photo, name and proposed rate. Click one to open the full profile, where you move them to a new stage, invite, hire and rate.
Every application now says per hour or per month, and applicants can accept your posted rate in one tap. No more guessing whether “$500” is hourly.
Specialists can now record a video intro on WorkBase PH, even from inside the apply box, and send it with their application. Recorded intros play right on their profile.
The Inbox and the Message Candidate panel are bigger, keep line breaks and wrap long links, so longer messages stay easy to read.
Want our team to take a role off your hands? The $29 you paid for that role’s post comes off its Done-For-You Hiring quote. Quotes are free.
Every plan and service, from the $29 post to Done-For-You and Managed Hire, is now on one pricing page.
When an employer invites you, you see their open times and book the one that suits you. No waiting for replies.
No Loom account needed. Record a video intro of up to 3 minutes on your laptop or phone, or switch to voice only. You’ll find it on your Profile.
The apply box lets you send the intro on your profile or record a new one just for that job.
Or propose your own rate per hour or per month. The employer sees exactly which one you mean.
Employers review your resume with every application, so you need one on file to apply. Upload it once and it goes with each application.
We no longer email job matches. New matches show up in your Inbox and on the Jobs tab, so log in often to catch them early.
You get an Inbox notice the first time an employer opens your application. And if your saved Loom or Vocaroo link stops playing, your Profile page tells you why and how to fix it.
