Pick your time zone when you order: your assistant works your business hours, so there is no overlap problem. If your team spans time zones, agree on a daily check-in time, keep tasks in a shared project tool and let your assistant manage the calendar so meetings land at sensible hours for everyone.
Below is what an Administrative Assistant does, what it costs and how to hire one this week.
