About Magic
Magic is a leading modern outsourcing platform that connects SMBs to high-quality remote workers, from SDRs to virtual assistants and more. With roots in Silicon Valley and backing from top venture capitalists, our workers are supercharged with a combination of the latest AI technology and training. We came out of Y Combinator in 2015, have grown to 1,000+ remote workers, and are backed by Sequoia Capital with over $30M in funding.
Background
Our company came out of Y Combinator in 2015. Since then we've grown to 1000+ remote workers, with strong venture-backing (including Sequoia Capital) and over $30M in funding to date. We are fully remote across Asia and US time zones.
Every client Magic serves depends on being matched with the right assistant — and that match only happens because someone made a smart, well-informed call on candidate readiness. That someone is you. As a Recruitment Associate (Matcher), you are the final quality checkpoint before a candidate meets a client. You're not just screening — you're making judgment calls that directly affect client satisfaction and Magic's reputation. When you get it right, clients stay. When clients stay, Magic grows. This role exists because quality placements don't happen by accident — they happen because someone owns the process end to end.

What Winning Looks Like
You consistently endorse candidates who meet client expectations — your placement quality score reflects your judgment, not just your effort
You complete your daily interview targets without sacrificing the accuracy of your evaluation reports
You catch candidate readiness issues before they reach the client — you flag concerns proactively, not after the fact
Your evaluation reports are structured, concise, and client-ready — the hiring manager can make a decision from your summary alone without needing edits
You show up with the same level of energy and engagement in your sixth interview as your first
After a difficult call or a mistake, you're back to full capacity within minutes — not hours
Who This Role Is NOT For
You are not available for shifting schedules including nights, evenings, or days — schedules are assigned based on business needs and are not self-selected
You have low natural energy — this role requires sustained enthusiasm across 4–6 consecutive interviews every single shift
You take days to recover emotionally from a difficult conversation or a mistake — this role requires quick reset and forward momentum
You're proud of how fast you work, not how accurately — this role rewards precision over speed, every time
You need constant supervision to stay on task — this role requires genuine independence and self-direction
You don't have a professional home office setup right now with reliable internet (25+ Mbps) and a quiet environment for confidential interviews
You treat daily targets as optional — performance expectations are real from Day 1
You've held multiple roles for under a year — we're looking for someone building a career, not collecting experience
You see feedback as personal criticism rather than part of learning
You are currently freelancing as a VA/EA and plan to keep those clients — exclusivity is non-negotiable
