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.
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 Executive Assistant we place starts as a name on a resume — our job is to find out who's actually ready before a client ever sees them. As Magic scales its EA placements, we need someone who can run a high-volume screening engine without letting quality slip. This role exists because bad screening costs us client trust, and good screening is what lets the rest of the business move fast. You're the filter that makes everything downstream possible.

What Winning Looks Like
You complete 16 structured candidate interviews per day without falling behind
You wrap documentation within 5 minutes of finishing each interview, every time
You hold a 15–25% candidate advancement rate while keeping assessment accuracy above 90%
You hit 95%+ on daily interview completion, consistently, not just on good days
You give pass/fail decisions clients trust without you having to double back and re-explain them
You spot patterns in candidate quality early enough to flag them before they become a problem
You stay sharp on interview 16 the same way you were on interview 1
Who This Role Is NOT For
You've never conducted a structured interview or formal candidate assessment before
You get rattled when a schedule is packed back-to-back with little breathing room
You take feedback on your evaluations personally rather than as a calibration tool
You're not comfortable telling a candidate "no" directly and professionally
You need every process documented before you'll act — this role requires judgment within a framework, not just following steps
You're looking for a role with variety day-to-day; this is repeatable, high-volume work by design
You can't commit to a fixed Monday–Friday shift (7:30 AM–4:30 PM or 11:00 AM–8:00 PM Manila time)
You're applying as a stopgap and don't see yourself growing into a recruitment career
