Tech News Trends And Headlines - Virtual Employees

When we mention something is "virtual" in modern terminology

, we are almost always referring to something related to the internet. So Virtual Dating is dating making use of the internet. "Virtual" does not indicate something that does not exist. However it implies you're replacing a normal physical entity with a real but for the most part, unseen entity that lives on the internet.

The trend in strategic business planning is to incorporate an aggressive "virtual marketing" plan with your traditional plans. So it is sensible that eventually the move to virtual resources would get to human resources with the availability of virtual employees.

In the last 2 or 3 years, virtual employment has taken off and become an incredibly real resource for businesses wanting to tap into valuable experience and subject matter expertise that cannot be discovered locally. Agencies such as Team Double Click and Rent-A-Coder provide an army of ready to work professionals that can step in and get a job completed quickly and efficiently for an employer.

The apparent first application of virtual workers is to subcontract to an online employment agency certain task specific projects that have a short beginning, middle and end. Building a new function into a web page is a great example of a project that can be packed into an understandable project and signed over to a virtual consultant to perform the work and return to the online employer.

But the concept of virtual employment is going beyond supplying a different variation on outsourcing to a consultant. Several virtual employment agencies provide administrative assistants, sales support and various other features normally associated with a full time employee but those services are carried out "virtually".

The virtual employment trend in business has obvious advantages for businesses which are searching for qualified assistance. It opens the door to recruitment sources that can supplement the local talent pool. Often times virtual staffing agencies may have on their "employee roles" people with a specialized background or skill.

Along with the advantages that virtual employment has for businesses to fill needs for skilled workers, it is an excellent resource for talented workers who want to make a contribution to the business world on their own terms. Virtual workers almost universally work at home or where they decided to work. Often the work is task based with a deadline so the employee can select the hours that works with their family and personal schedules best. And, like working for a temp agency, the worker can create a resume with the agency that improves the quality of work they get as time passes.

Virtual staffing is a trend that continues to be a success for all concerned as it has matured in the last couple of years. We can search for this twenty first century methodology for bringing in talented employees to continue to grow as more and more businesses get comfortable with staffing their employee ranks "virtually".
