The most educated talent pool in South America — in your time zone.
We focus on two countries for a reason: the quality is exceptional and the overlap with your workday is real.
The most educated talent in South America
Argentina and Chile lead the region in higher education. A completed university degree there reflects real discipline and sacrifice — and it shows up in the work.
Genuine English proficiency
We weight spoken and written English heavily in screening, so client-facing and phone roles are handled with confidence.
Your time zone, not the other side of the world
Most of Argentina and Chile sit within 0–3 hours of U.S. time zones. Your assistant works while you work — no overnight handoffs.
Motivated, career-minded professionals
These are people who want a stable, long-term role with a U.S. company that treats them as a partner — not a faceless call center.

Estimate for illustration only — not a quote. Actual pay depends on the role, seniority, and hours. We share your exact numbers on the call.
Why your hire will actually be good
Curation is the whole point. We filter hard so you don't have to — and it's why placements tend to stick.
Two-minute video screen
Every applicant records a short video before we ever review them. It filters out low effort instantly.
English, weighted heavily
Clear communication is one of the strongest predictors of a hire that lasts.
Humble, hungry, hard-working
We look for specifics over bragging, curiosity over coasting, and follow-through over talk.
Scored, not guessed
Every finalist is rated on a consistent scorecard so quality is repeatable, not luck.
Only finalists who clear the bar reach you.
If a hire doesn’t work out, we replace them — free.
Every placement is covered by a replacement guarantee. Members get an extended six-month window and half-price future hires.
Fill your estimating support seat the smart way.
