Saongroup.com announces agreement with Virtual Assistants Limited (Val.ie)

saongroup.com, the fastest growing international online recruitment company, today announced an agreement with Virtual Assistants Limited (val.ie) as part of a saongroup initiative to provide expanded career opportunities for candidates and an advanced resource for recruiters.

Recruiters with saongroup.com now have access to a network of Virtual Assistantís, independent business persons providing a range of professional support services, via val.ie; while jobseekers visiting saongroup recruitment websites have the opportunity to set up as a val.ie Virtual Assistant.

Ciaran McCooey, CEO, saongroup.com commented: ìSaongroup.com is delighted to join with val.ie to offer enhanced services to our recruiters and jobseekers. This latest initiative reflects the expanded opportunities for employers and workers alike generated by the virtual workplace.î

He continued: ìWith many small and medium sized companies requiring professionals to carry out short term work assignments and projects val.ie is a unique online resource to help them select and engage a professional quickly and cost effectively. This site is also a valuable tool for large organisations that may need a professional to carry out project work or to cover for employees on leave.î

Kevin Donohue, Val.ie said: ìThe Virtual Assistant (VA) industry which was established in the United States in 1997 is fast becoming a preferred work practice and looks set to expand rapidly across Europe over the next ten years. With the roll out of broadband technologies, increasing commute times and the rising cost of childcare, more people are choosing to set up their own companies working from home.î

Saongroup.com is now one of the fastest growing Irish owned online companies in the world, with offices in 10 countries across 4 continents. Their leadership position in online recruitment provides an exciting opportunity to expand the Val network through advertising initiatives on IrishJobs.ie and NIJobs.com with the potential for international expansion according to Donohue.
