An outsourcing partner that can provide such fantastic benefits like their very own video recording studio for creating videos is to be valued. VirtualEmployee latest offering has catapulted it way ahead of the competition.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/09/2012 -- VirtualEmployee, one of the top outsourcing companies in India, has recently increased its bouquet of offerings for its clients by setting up a free Video Recording Studio within its premises. This studio can be accessed by all the virtual employees working for clients across the world and can be used to create short videos that the client can use for promotion of their online business. All a client needs to do for using this facility is to pre-book the studio.

Understanding the crucial role that the audio-visual media plays today in creating the desired impact in the consumer's mind, more and more web-based businesses are using videos to supplement their online presence. Videos are easy for viral marketing as well on all social media platforms and create a far greater impact on the viewer than any written word or even graphic.

Till recently, only already created videos were being outsourced for online promotions and viewership building. This Video Recording facility comes as a real boon for all the SMEs in particular who outsource with http://www.virtualemployee.com since they usually have limited access to such expensive equipment or can ill-afford to build a studio due to space and financial constraints. And in many countries, professional video making facilities are very basic or absent altogether, making VirtualEmployee latest offerings all the more path-breaking and valuable. Even outsourcing was limited to the outsourcing partner merely helping promote a ready made video of the client through various viral marketing strategies. The outsourcing of actually creating the video from scratch outside the client's country was literally unheard of. But, VirtualEmployee has changed all that.

So, in a way, what VirtualEmployee has actually done is to give a client their very own video recording studio in which their respective virtual employees can shoot and record as many videos as they want. And the best part is that this facility is totally free of cost. There is no limit on the number of videos that the client can ask their virtual employee to make.

The studio uses a green background to enhance the video quality so that the virtual employee can easily insert graphics or content, etc to the video, thereby making it a rich visual experience for the viewer.

This Video Recording studio facility of http://www.virtualEmployee.com has several advantages. From creating videos for the client's company and uploading them on YouTube or the client's company's Facebook page to creating presentations that showcase a client's company's strengths and strong features, this video recording facility can truly make a huge difference to the client's business growth if utilized properly. What's more, it can also act as great tool whereby the employee can create a video about any technical instructions that the client may wish to share.

The Internet is becoming increasingly competitive and the Video Recording facility of VirtualEmployee.com helps clients grab the opportunity to steal a march over their rivals.

Opt for VirtualEmployee.com's Gold recruitment service and get top priority as far as your job vacancy is concerned. For a nominal fee, you can race past the rest of the clients and bag the perfect virtual employee.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/01/2012 -- Hiring is always a time-consuming exercise, whether the person you wish to hire is a local resource or someone who inhabits another country and continent, as is the case with outsourcing. Either way, the entire process makes demands on your time, energy and resources. Within outsourcing, searching for a suitable remote resource is doubly intimidating and understandably fraught with its own unique challenges and pitfalls. If you are looking to hire someone known as a virtual employee, then you need to find a reliable vendor who can help you find one.

VirtualEmployee(http://www.virtualemployee.com), one of India's top outsourcing company, has been the first to pioneer the revolutionary concept of the virtual employee. So, when a company outsources with this vendor, they get their very own dedicated resource who works for them like a full-time, permanent employee. The best part is this service provider's unique client-centric recruitment model that involves every client very closely in the entire hiring process.

The recruitment service offered by http://www.VirtualEmployee.com comes in two options – the Free recruitment service and the Gold recruitment service to keep up with the high volume of requests that pour in from business partners all around the globe. With the Gold service, a client can race past other clients who are as eager to hire a virtual employee for the same job description. So, if you want to hire a content writer, your chances of bagging one go significantly higher if you opt for the paid recruitment service.

When a client submits their job description for the vacancy they wish to fill, this vendor's HR executives start searching for suitable candidates then submit these resumes to you. You review the resumes and further shortlist the candidates you would like to interview and/ or test. After the interviews/ tests, it is entirely up to you to hire any of the candidates. If you are not satisfied even then, then the whole process is simply repeated all over again with a fresh batch of resumes.

However, how fast you get your candidate depends on the kind of recruitment service you have opted for. Of course, certain services are common to both options, such as receiving candidate resumes, conduct interviews, and assign tests. The other aspects, however, vary.

Free Recruitment Service – The number of HR executives assigned to a client who has opted for the Free recruitment service varies and is subject to availability since the vacancy priority is accorded to the clients who have opted for the Gold recruitment service. This applies also to the number if candidates screened by the HR department, making the turnaround time for every job vacancy a variable affair. Recruitment progress updates is absent as is the lack of senior management overview. The references and background checks of candidates in this option is also limited, while the technical round of screening and research and analysis of the said vacancy is entirely at the discretion of the HR executives.

Gold Recruitment Service - Clients can upgrade their recruitment option to the Gold recruitment service for which a fee of US$49.95 is charged. The most significant advantages of the Gold recruitment service is the high level of priority that the client enjoys as far as their job vacancy is concerned. The number of HR executives working on this client's vacancy is considerably more, the vacancy itself is accorded a higher priority, and the turnaround time for resumes submission is faster. What's more, recruitment progress updates are regularly submitted to the client while technical and senior project management gets involved in personally screening and conducting the first round of candidate interviews. The reference and background checks carried out on candidates is much more thorough an research and analysis of the job vacancy is done as well.

The main reason for having two options in the recruitment service is that VirtulEmployee.com receives a lot of requests for hiring a virtual employee, and many times for identical job descriptions. Naturally, clients who have opted for the Gold recruitment service get top priority, making it easy for the HR department to prioritize.

Virtual Employee Pvt. Ltd.'s new office will soon be coming up in the prestigious SEZ, Noida. With a state-of-the-art infrastructure and an office boasting all the amenities, clients can look forward to greater things in this internationally-maintained new office.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/16/2012 -- Virtual Employee Pvt. Ltd.(http://www.virtualemployee.com/), one of the leading outsourcing companies in India, will soon be shifting to its swanky new office in the prestigious SEZ (Socio Economic Zone), Noida. Work is on in full swing and the entire relocation is likely to take place later this year. This outsourcing company was awarded the SEZ status last year in recognition of its considerable contribution to the Indian economy because of outsourcing.

As is well known, only those firms that have been handpicked by the Government for their substantial contribution to the nation's Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) get assigned this highly coveted SEZ status. Virtual Employee Pvt. Ltd. will now be joining the likes of IT biggies such as Tech Mahindra, HCL and others in this IT-dominated zone in Noida.

Special Economic Zone means a specified region in a state that has liberal economic laws in comparison to the state's typical economic laws. SEZs help in the economic and industrial growth of a country and this is the reason that the government of India is encouraging the setting up of more and more SEZs in the country. So, being in the SEZ means having access to all the benefits that the Government lavishes on such companies. One of these benefits is a 15-year corporate tax holiday on export profit – 100% for initial 5 years, 50% for the next 5 years and up to 50% for the balance 5 years equivalent to profits ploughed back for investment.

The new address is also likely to further cement this outsourcing firm's standing as the cream of the lot in the outsourcing industry. In the business for the last five years, Virtual Employee Pvt. Ltd. has a global clientele that is spread across the US, UK, Europe, Australia and even Canada.

So, what are the embellishments that accompany the shift of location?

The companies that set up their units in the SEZ are provided with built up space and developed plots. For starters, the new office will be of an absolute international standard, complete with central air-conditioning and central heating facilities as well as a host of amenities for the employees. It can enjoy support services such as post office, banks, food courts, ATMs, and fire services, all of which are provided within the SEZ complex. The office will boast state-of-the-art infrastructure, spacious workstations, comfortable restrooms, lounges, canteen facilities within the premises.

From the employee's point of view, it couldn't be better! And the new address in the SEZ will further impress the company's overseas clients when they come visiting to interact with their virtual employees. It is a further proof of the outsourcing prowess that this vendor has achieved in just five years. Of course, being the pioneer company to have introduced the revolutionary new concept of the 'virtual employee', dispelled the doubts and misconceptions many first-time clients had and not only did they use Virtual Employee pvt. Ltd.'s services, they also ended up expanding their virtual team base here in India with this vendor.

Losing control over a remote employee is one of the chief concerns of a client who outsources. VirtualEmployee understands this natural concern and has taken adequate steps to ensure employee control. Its latest tool is a biometric access control in which the client gets a detailed record of the employee's movements as they occur in real time during their work shift hours.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/03/2012 -- The client has always been at the centre of all VirtualEmployee endeavours, an approach that is this leading outsourcing service provider's strength. Client control over the remote employee despite outsourcing is the unique offering of this vendor. So, apart from providing every client with their very own dedicated virtual employee, our aim had been to make them also feel as much in control of their remote resource as is possible, with the aid of advanced technology.

With this in view, we have added one more layer of employee monitoring in our infrastructure. This biometric access control is a digital device that is activated by the thumb impression of a virtual employee, thereby keeping a detailed record of the movements of the employee every time they go in and out of the office premises during their work shift hours. Nothing new in that, except for the fact that this log is directly and simultaneously accessed by the client in real time. So, every time a client's employee leaves the office premises, they get to know about it. This is just another way of making the business partner feel more in command of the situation by giving them yet another form of direct control over their virtual employee.

This is also one more way in which VirtualEmployee makes the client feel more empowered, and in a way, takes away the last vestiges of uncertainty associated with outsourcing. A dedicated resource, a monitored work environment and now an employee that can be directly monitored by the client themselves – the benefits of outsourcing to this service provider just got magnified.

One of the biggest concerns in outsourcing to freelancers is the lack of any substantial control or monitoring facility that the client has. It all hinges on trust and behind-the-scenes activity, so to speak, with communication restricted to mostly emails. Go a step further and in the vast anonymity of outright project outsourcing, the client has even less control over the outsourced work. This is where outsourcing to a vendor like VirtualEmployee.com makes all the difference between feeling helpless and being in total control over both, the remote resource as well as how and when the outsourced work should be executed.

In addition to the biometric access control, this service provider has other employee monitoring processes in place such as security guards at the entrance, a vigilant HR team that physically supervises and keeps track of the movements of the virtual employees. In addition, the ever-watchful IT team keeps close watch over the network traffic, making sure that no client data has any chance of leaving the employee's system. From disabling external storage devices in an employee's system to making them work on the client's server or even on a virtual server, VirtualEmployee takes every precaution possible to safeguard valuable client data that comes to it.

With the latest means of direct control, a client can only feel more empowered as the perceptions of time and space dissolve even further.

Talk about IT outsourcing and the mention of India is inevitable. Now with India having been chosen as the partner country in the upcoming prestigious CeBIT Australia 2012, the Indian IT outsourcing industry can only soar to greater heights.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/28/2012 -- IT outsourcing is synonymous with India and with very good reasons too. Recent research has again and again thrown up more or less consistent figures – more than 85 percent of the software firms in the US would choose India as their preferred destination for all IT outsourcing. Indian IT companies like Wipro, Infosys are multi-billion dollar outsourcing giants with US-listed shares.

And, now, India has added another feather in its outsourcing cap. India is the partner country for the CeBIT Australia 2012 in Sydney, Australia from 22nd– 24thMay, 2012. It is a great opportunity for the Asian giant to showcase the strength of its burgeoning IT sector in Australia and to all the other participating countries and patrons at the event.

"CeBIT Australia combines Asia Pacific's largest exhibition with an innovative and exciting conference series featuring leading ICT vendors and content owners from across the world. It is also a platform to get a first hand view of latest technological developments across the globe, explore partnership opportunities and develop trade".

That India been chosen to be a partner country in such a prestigious event stands testimony to India's IT prowess. India has several factors going for it that make it the most suitable destination for all IT-related outsourcing.

According to latest news reports, today, India's IT and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry is worth a whopping $100 billion, and "it directly employs 107,000 people in the United States, almost a third of whom are Americans, a figure that has doubled in five years".

Many factors have favoured India, catapulting it to the top of the IT outsourcing heap. India has excellent international data communication links and Internet access in major cities. With the Indian economy growing at a rapid pace, the highly pro-outsourcing Indian government has invested heavily in infrastructure, technology and communication links. Thanks to significant support from the government, India has been able to build high-tech areas where technology and infrastructure are of international standards. Numerous Software Technology Parks abound in the major metros which are equipped with all the latest infrastructure to encourage and attract all the big players in the IT industry from the world over.

India's well-organised education system produces almost 3.1 million graduates each year of which a large percentage are graduates from technical institutes. In addition to the educational and professional qualifications, Indian professionals enjoy a comfort and ease with the English language that is not shared by other rival nations such as China or the Russia.

That India will continue to dominate the IT outsourcing industry(http://www.virtualemployee.com/) goes without saying. The goal of Indian IT today is that customers should 'come for the cost-savings, but stay for the quality'. Indeed, from handling IT-enabled services (ITES) like call centres, SEO, to now working on complex, pure IT jobs such as development and designing, Indian software programmers and developers are in huge demand.

When companies such as Cisco, Oracle or Hewlett Packard outsource to India they do so because of the confidence they have in the Indian IT outsourcing industry. They know that they will have access to talent, quality results, fast turnaround times and low costs. That so many multi-billion dollar companies outsource to India is yet further evidence that India is renowned around the world as the outsourcing hub of the world.

Hiring a virtual employee is much better option in every way than limiting yourself to merely the local talent available. Not only do you have access to a more experienced and skilled work pool, you don't have to bother about spiraling overhead costs as is the case with hiring a local resource.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/21/2012 -- If you are looking to recruit a new employee into your company, then why limit yourself to merely the local talent pool? Cast your net further afield – specifically India – and give outsourcing a shot. In fact, in today's increasingly flexible work environment and rapidly advancing technology, rigidity has no place, and rightfully so. Smart business owners and organizations have opened their doors to outsourcing to reap in the benefits of not just cost savings but also of harnessing talent from around the globe.

India has retained its position as the numero uno outsourcing destination of the world and for reasons that are totally justified. From having one of the largest technical talent pools in the world to excellent satellite and telecommunication facilities to a stable government that actively supports outsourcing, India inspires confidence in the countries that outsource to it. Not surprisingly, there are hundreds of outsourcing companies and vendors that handles massive volumes of work from companies in the US and the UK on a daily basis.

While there are many outsourcing models in the market today, the one that has proved to boast a track record of success has been the virtual employee model of outsourcing. The credit for introducing this revolutionary new concept goes to VirtualEmployee.com, one of the most reputed and well-established outsourcing companies in India. While this model works for all organizations, it has come as a boon for the scores of SMEs in particular who had hitherto been at the mercy of unprofessional offshore freelancers.

For such small enterprises, hiring local talent was simply not an option. If the high salaries of experienced professionals were not prohibitive enough, there were other factors to consider as well. The US, UK and many European countries have stringent labour laws that put a lot of pressure on companies that recruit locally. Each fresh hiring involves extra expenses in the form of employee benefits, insurance, employee provident fund and so on. That's not all. Overhead costs shoot up as well. There is office space to consider, extra infrastructure, more investment in hardware and software and other issues like cab facilities for pick and drop, etc. all in all, employing someone calls for major investment.

Luckily, hiring a virtual employee is the solution to such dilemmas. The virtual employee, as the name suggests, is your employee but works remotely from the office of the outsourcing vendor in India. When you hire such a remote employee from a trusted vendor like VirtualEmployee.com, you are free to concentrate only on work. The vendor takes care of all non-work related logistics from infrastructure, seating arrangement, the latest PCs, 24-hour HR and IT support and back-up and a professional work environment in which to work.

The best part is that you don't have to settle for the second-best as can often happen with the local resources available. If you want an experienced professional to work with you, with a virtual employee, you are assured of only the best talent there is.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/07/2012 -- The number one factor that derails any outsourcing process (aside from the wrong choice of the vendor) is faulty communication between a client and their outsourcing partner – irrespective of whether the latter is a freelancer or a dedicated employee. While communication glitches with the average freelancer is a given, they should never occur with a dedicated employee, because that would mean not optimizing what can be a very successful outsourcing model. In short, effective communication between client-vendor or client-remote employee is absolutely crucial for the success of any outsourcing venture.

Effective communication is essential in all its forms – verbal and written. So this means that first communicating effectively with the service provider chosen by you, letting them know in clear terms the kind of remote employee you are looking for; their domain expertise; educational qualifications; and their professional experience. This, in turn, will lead to you getting what can almost be described as a 'customised' virtual employee, who is most suited to work on your outsourced task.

The second level of communication concerns directly with your remote employee. The quality and the quantity, both are equally important in determining the end result. Long distance management does call for some dexterity in infusing the working association with sufficient clarity, motivation and sheer feel-good factor to enable the virtual employee transcend the perceived differences of space and time.

So, what are the measures to ensure that a strong and effective communication takes place between you and your remote employee?

1.Avoid ambiguity in any form. Remember, verbal communication can easily get warped due to many factors – bad telephone line connection, hard-to-understand accents, terms and phrases that are peculiar to the respective countries and so on. Make it a point to back up any verbal instructions with a written copy as well – emails, Skype chat, whatever works best.

2.Set aside a time in the day or the week to have a one-on-one time with the newest long-distance member of your team. Established vendors like VirtualEmployee.com have advanced communication technology like video conferencing in place to further enhance the interaction between a client and their remote worker. This interaction in 'real' time and when both parties can actually see each other, even though from across a large screen, can really enrich a working relationship, assist in quick resolution of issues and save time wasted in exchanging emails.

3.Giving regular feedback is yet another form of communication that is equally, if not more, important. Overcoming the time zone differences is challenging enough but not entirely impossible. Complex software development work like coding or PHP development require constant feedback from the client's end to avoid a build-up of mistakes and glitches. Feedback works to reinforce the correct behaviour (in terms of task execution and completion) while discouraging a faulty approach.

4.Quick responses from the client's side. The value of a prompt response (unless a genuine reason makes it difficult) cannot be undermined. It makes the virtual employee feel that they are a valuable part of the client's team instead of some remote employee working halfway across the globe. It also prevents a pile-up of unanswered emails and messages, creating a bottleneck that becomes hard to maneuver around.

If these factors are kept in mind then a major part of the outsourcing process has become ea

Outsourcing can definitely be said to be a company's survival kit during the recession. Since an economic meltdown is all about finances, outsourcing is for this very reason so attractive during a financial slump. Cost savings, talented professionals and very little overhead costs – all these make outsourcing a very financially sound decision during the recession.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/24/2012 -- Recession can seem like an unlikely time to go out on a limb and take a chance with outsourcing. But if the alternative is declaring bankruptcy, then giving outsourcing a shot can probably be the best business decision you can take in trying economic times.

Experts are predicting that while the second almost-here recession will definitely have some impact on fields like IT outsourcing, there are many other verticals like the media, healthcare, energy and entertainment that will continue to benefit from outsourcing.

For an SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) in particular, outsourcing is a great way to lower spiraling operational costs and rein in finances and resources – both essential for tiding over the likely economic slump. Outsourcing helps such companies to stay afloat because they hand over their business functions to outsourcing partners who are usually based in another country, have better infrastructure and new technology as well as experts who can work on these functions in a much more cost-effective manner.

Among the fields that will benefit during the recession will be BPO or back office operations. In 2009, Nasscom had predicted that India's back office outsourcing industry was poised to grow at 18.4% that year to reach $14.8 billion. Back office work will be continued to be outsourced to India as it translates into substantially lowered operational costs. The reasoning is that since BPO work is a long-term business, it remains more or less immune from the onslaught of recession. According to an April 2009 Gartner study, Indian BPO providers have dominated the BPO industry, stealing a march over their western BPO counterparts. Gartner expects the BPO market share of Indian vendors to nearly double by 2010-2011.

The burgeoning transcription Outsourcing services will also benefit during the recession. Medical transcription was among the first to be outsourced but now even other fields like finance, forensic sciences, the media and legal industries have also started outsourcing their transcription services to India.

Cost-effectiveness will continue to be the biggest draw as far as outsourcing to India is concerned since it offers the western world an unmatched combination of high caliber professionals and cutting edge technology.

Outsourcing means that a company gets some sort of a breathing space to rearrange its finances and realign its business strategy, and most of all, ease of the pressure of laying off its employees. Contrary to popular perception, outsourcing actually helps generate more job opportunities because the costs saved in outsourcing are then utilized to expand the business.

The changing nature of outsourcing means that today work can be outsourced to not just a freelancer but also to someone called the 'virtual employee'. This remote employee is your employee, working exclusively for you but from the outsourcing vendor's office, effectively sparing you the overhead and maintenance costs. During an economic meltdown, a virtual employee can prove to be his worth in gold because not only is your work not going to suffer, you have no compulsion to maintain the employee or lay him off.

All in all, outsourcing is a company's survival kit during the recession.

VirtualEmployee.com's free recruitment service is great not just for getting that perfect virtual employee but also because it gives every client that sense of control over the hiring process.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/16/2012 -- Having a virtual employee work for you can enhance the entire outsourcing process like no other. Aside from the cost-savings aspect, a virtual employee can be a huge asset in other ways as well in terms of contributing to your company's talent pool and bringing in a fresh perspective on work and related business functions.

The question is: how do you go about discovering this virtual employee? Do you advertise or do you search through the staggering number of outsourcing companies that a simple Internet search throws up? What if you were told that there is an outsourcing vendor whose free recruitment service can help you get your dream employee? That's correct. VirtualEmployee.com, one of the leading outsourcing vendors in India, has one of the most unique recruitment services in the industry and one that has the client (you) at the core of all its philosophy.

VirtualEmployee.com helps you find efficient employees that make great hires, and take your business to the next level, that too at no cost at all till you finally decide to hire.

In addition, this vendor's strategic location makes it easy for it to access a vast database of highly qualified and experienced professionals in virtually every field and domain one can think of, from software development to architecture, website designing, accounts, law and writing.

This is how you go from searching to hiring an efficient virtual employee in six easy steps – in which you are in control all along and make the final decision on who gets to work for you.

1.You submit a detailed job description of the vacancy you are seeking to fill to the outsourcing service provider. This description must contain the profile of your would-be employee, right from the educational qualification, job experience, domain expertise and so on. This makes it easier for the vendor's HR executives to narrow down their search and pick the most suitable resumes for you.

2.After receiving your detailed job description of the desired candidate, the recruitment team swings into action, posting this resume on various job portals, scanning through candidate listings on various sites and going through their own database of hundreds of professionals.

3.Within a short time, the HR executives start receiving candidate resumes and also pick out likely ones from existing listings. This is where the first screening process takes place when the HR team scans the resumes, carefully short-listing only those that closely match your job requirements. This batch of resumes is then sent to you.

4.On receiving the candidate resumes from the vendor's HR team, you screen them once again according to your particular requirements, judging whether they would fit in with the job you have in mind. Finally, you short-list the most suitable resumes and sent the list to the HR executives.

5.The vendor's HR executives call up the candidates that have been short-listed by you and fix and appointment for the first round of interviews, conducted in the vendor's office. Only the HR executive conducts this face-to-face interview, trying to elicit as much information from the candidate as possible, gauging their experience level and deciding whether or not they will be suitable. At this stage, senior level in-house employees, working in the same domain as the client, are also called in to give their assessment of the candidate.

6.Once all the candidates have been interviewed, clients seeking technical vacancies may then request that their candidates also be asked to attempt some tests to further give an indication of their skills and knowledge.

7.It is at this stage that the client actively enters the hiring process. The HR team arranges for client-candidate interviews of those candidates that have performed well in the interviews and technical rounds. Interviews take place either over telephone, Skype webcam or across a large life-size screen through video conferencing.

8.All this is absolutely free and the client does not have to pay anything for all the services that they are receiving.

9.It is only when the client is fully satisfied with their candidate and actually hires them, that they are expected to pay.

10.If, even after the client interview, the client is not satisfied with the candidate, the vendor's HR team sends them more resumes till they are happy with the person they are hiring.

This is a great service not just because it is free but because it allows the client complete visibility and control on the entire recruitment process and lets them choose who would be finally working for them.

Has outsourcing really cost the US economy dearly or has it actually helped save US companies from going bankrupt? All the flak notwithstanding, this article endeavours to show why outsourcing is the need of the hour for the US economy, recession or no recession.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/07/2012 -- "U.S. software and technology companies will save $21 billion a year by 2008 through hiring workers in India and other low-cost nations, adding $124 billion to the U.S. economy, an industry-funded study forecast.The cost savings will cut U.S. inflation, increase productivity, boost wages and create 317,367 new jobs over the next five years, according to a study funded by the Information Technology Association of America, which is based in Arlington, Virginia, and represents 500 companies such as AT&T Corp., Amazon.com Inc. and International Business Machines Corp." ('US Firms To Save From Outsourcing', Bloomberg News Service)

Outsourcing may have come in for a lot of flak from anti-outsourcing lobbies in the US, but the fact of the matter is that outsourcing has in fact been the one bailout option that has saved many US companies from going totally bankrupt. During and post-recession, what outsourcing did was to actually help save jobs, help companies that were already reeling under the financial onslaught save several hundred dollars and actually create fresh opportunities. It sounds unbelievable, and even fantastic, but it is nevertheless the truth.

Cut to the recession that brought world economies to their knees in 2008. As the disbelief subsided and gave way to shock and then panic, it was outsourcing that saved the day for scores of big and small companies across the US. It is true that recession did bring closure to many firms, many departments, handed the pink slip to thousands of Americans – but that backlash had to happen. Outsourcing stalled further decline into a deeper abyss of financial gloom.

"According to research data, more than 400,000 U.S. jobs had moved abroad and the total is estimated to hit 3.3 million by 2015. That's just above 200,000 jobs lost every year to global outsourcing, a trivial problem in the context of the normal churn of the U.S. economy, where about 7 million jobs were gained and lost in each of the previous four quarters". (How Outsourcing Affects the US Economy! By Hasan in dirjournal.com)

When US companies outsource, they benefit from:

1.Cheap, imported talent and skilled professionals

2.Substantial cost savings on infrastructure

3.Substantial cost savings on hardware, software and technology

4.Freeing their company's manpower and resources to be better utilized in strengthening their core functions

5.Not having to invest in extra office space, office rent, accounts and HR

6.Retaining a competitive edge over their rivals because of increased efficiency and lowered operational costs

7.Freedom from government regulations, red tape, employment taxes and insurance and unexpected lawsuits in the event of unlawful (perceived) termination of employee services

8.Distribution of risk. When a company outsources certain functions, the risks associated with that function are also outsourced as a natural course of events to the service provider who has expertise in that particular function (example, payroll processing)

During the recession, companies in the US that could have gone under or were faced with the unpleasant task of laying off their employees, managed to steer clear off that decision by outsourcing low-end jobs (data entry, payroll processing, customer service) to low-costing but skilled professionals from Third World countries like India. Since labour costs are substantially lower in Asian countries, US companies stood to gain a whopping 60 percent savings in costs. What this resulted in was that the money saved was then poured back into keeping the company afloat. In other words, jobs that could have been laid off were not.

The virtual employee outsourcing model helps any company anywhere in the world to reinvent its workforce in a manner that had not been hitherto experienced. This is because this unique model has set a precedent in giving the client their very own virtual employee or even an entire virtual team, comprising from expert professionals from any field.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/01/2012 -- The unique virtual employee model, first introduced and popularized by VirtualEmployee.com – a leading outsourcing company in India – can help any company reinvent its work force when it comes to outsourcing. Outsourcing need not always mean losing control over your work and who works for you. It is about exploring new avenues in outsourcing that allow you the control and freedom that traditional forms like freelancing or outright project outsourcing have denied so far.

The virtual employee model is astonishingly simple but powerful. A company gains a full-fledged employee who works for them exclusively and on a long-term basis, albeit remotely from the outsourcing service provider's office in India. The best part is that this employee has been personally handpicked by the client themselves since the vendor's unique recruitment model involves each and every client very closely in the employee hiring process.

Another benefit of this outsourcing model is that not only do you get any professional from any field to work for you, but you can also easily build your very own virtual team or workforce, without having to spend anything extra on infrastructure or any fresh overheads. This is because the vendor's particular model makes it very easy for a client to scale up or down their employee strength, depending on their requirements and financial constraints.

Talent-wise, this model works best since a client can get the very best in any field and all at cost-effective rates. Hiring local talent can prove to be cost-prohibitive, particularly for starts-ups and the SMEs and getting affordable employee could mean having to compromise on expertise and experience. Then again, that particular expert whom you want just may not be available at all. On the other hand, outsourcing to a vendor who can fulfill these requirements can definitely help reinvent your workforce because all the professionals who can contribute to the growth and expansion of your business would be readily available with the vendor.

The other many benefits of using the virtual employee model are:

1.Whether you require just one employee from any field, or an assorted group of professionals from different fields, this model supports both requirements. In a sense, this model provides all the benefits of outsourcing without the loss of control that is commonly perceived or even experienced.

2.This virtual workforce may be continents removed from you and be operating in entirely different time zones, but that does not deter a smooth communication flow nor the efficiency of work. This is because this model puts the client firmly in the driver's seat and completely in control of both, their employee(s) as well as the work that has been outsourced.

3.Geographical proximity is no longer the criteria for hiring someone but quality, expertise and experience is. The virtual employee model gives you all three by allowing you to harness the best talent from anywhere in the world. This means that you never have to compromise on quality.

4.The virtual employee outsourcing model takes the entire outsourcing process several notches higher. You get the best of talent without having to invest anything extra apart from their salary and the vendor takes care of all other logistics and related issues.

So, yes, you are reinventing your workforce with the virtual employee outsourcing model.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/12/2012 -- Hiring is always a time-consuming and somewhat stressful activity that every organization has to undertake at some point of time or another.

However, when the outsourcing partner is VirtualEmployee.com, it's a different story altogether. VE's unique recruitment model makes it a cut above the rest and gives the client, irrespective of the domain they work in, exactly the kind of employee they were looking for.

The whole process is amazingly simple and uncomplicated. And the best part is that the client is involved very closely in the entire hiring process. So, chances of going wrong or picking an unsuitable candidate are almost negligible.

This is how it works in six easy steps.

First, you need to submit to VirtualEmployee.com a detailed job description for the position you seek to fill. The job description should include all relevant information, such as experience, qualifications, skills, years of experience and job duties. For highly specialized posts, more relevant information may be included so that VE's HR executives can filter the best candidates for you.

Second, on receiving your request, the HR executives of Virtual Employee Pvt Ltd swing into action and search for candidates that match the specifications listed in the job description you provided. Since VE is based in the heart of the country's National Capital Region, it has access to a vast database of talented and experienced professionals from just about every domain.

Third, VirtualEmployee.com's HR executives conduct a dual screening of all selected candidates. The first is a face to face interview in the office. If necessary the VirtualEmployee.com HR department also arrange for a second round of technical interviews to further test the skills of the candidate.

Fourth, the resumes of those candidates who seem qualified for the position you are seeking to fill are then submitted to you.

Fifth, you can through the resumes, and further refine the selection process by setting aside the ones that appeal the most to you. If needed, you may also provide the candidates with a test to satisfy yourself about their abilities.

Sixth, after the interviews have been conducted, it is entirely up to you to decide if you would like to hire the candidate or review more resumes and conduct more interviews.

There, wasn't that simple?

So, organizations from the developed countries always look for the best outsourcing partner to enhance their business potential.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/21/2011 -- Since hiring fresh in-house employees can be definitely cost-prohibitive, the next best – and cheap – alternative is to outsource. Not to freelancers but to full-time dedicated remote employees, who cost a company nothing more than their salary.

Luckily, the outsourcing industry has now helped the ubiquitous freelancer evolve into what is known as the remote employee or the virtual employee. This remote employee scores over an in-house employee in more ways than one.

1.A virtual employee costs less than an in-house employee. A software developer, a legal expert or even an accountant costs far more in terms of salary when compared to a similarly qualified professional from, say India. So, a company obviously stands to gain both, in terms of cost savings as well as exceptional skill and talent, in hiring a dedicated full-time virtual employee from India instead of recruiting somebody in-house. In other words, for the cost of a fresher back home you can easily hire a full-time experienced professional in the same domain.

2.A virtual employee works from an outsourcing vendor's well-equipped office, and so the vendor's office effectively acts as the offshore extension of the client's office in a foreign country. Opening a new offshore office in a new country can send costs skyrocketing but outsourcing to a dedicated full-time employee helps a company capture a double bonanza.

3.A company need not bother with issues like employment taxes, benefits, pension, gratuity etc with a virtual employee. An in-house employee demands more than just a pay packet at the end of each month. There are the 'unseen' expenses that silently eat away into a company's resources – like the aforementioned aspects such as taxes and employee benefits. Plus, every in-house employee also needs office space, a separate set of hardware, software, and other office accessories – all of which translate into expense.

4.Scaling up and down the team size with a virtual employee is far easier and less problematic than with an in-house employee. The thought of terminating an in-house employee's services fill most employers with dread and trepidation, with the threat of a lawsuit always lurking in the background. Scaling up can be cost-prohibitive while scaling down can cost you even more in the long run if the disgruntled employee should initiate legal proceedings against your company on grounds of unfair termination of services.

5.Quick access to skilled and talented employees who come with limited HR overheads and investments. Outsourcing has opened the door to a vast talent pool in countries where skill and expertise is high and the low cost of hiring such talent is its most attractive aspect. A gifted content writer, a trouble-shooting website developer, a quick-thinking accountant – all can be working for you, albeit remotely, all without disturbing your overheads' status quo.

A dedicated remote employee is a wonderfully flexible resource, who can work the same hours as the client, can be trained and instructed on exactly what is expected from them, works steadily and dedicatedly – and, best of all, costs so much less than an in-house employee.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/14/2011 -- When outsourcing first burst on the scene a few decades ago, it was mainly in its two distinct forms – offshore freelancing and project outsourcing to outsourcing companies.However, as with every industry, it was a learning experience for both, the clients and the vendors, and pretty soon both types of outsourcing started showing cracks.

It was then that a company called VirtualEmployee.com, begun about four years ago, came up with a concept that was to revolutionize the outsourcing industry. Began as a modest start-up in the National Capital Region (NCR) of India, this vendor pioneered the term 'virtual employee'- a dedicated human resource who would work for a company in a dedicated manner. It was completely different from what either a freelancer or project outsourcing was capable of. A virtual employee was, in effect, not a third external party at all but an addition to the client's team.

Needless to add, that the virtual employee has taken off in a big way as the advantages offered are far greater than those experienced with the other two options.

So, just how is the dedicated virtual employee model of outsourcing quicker, cheaper and better?

1.The dedicated virtual employee model of outsourcing is quicker
VirtualEmployee.com has rich existing pool of skilled employees - ready to be hired any time if the requirement so arises. So, if a client wishes to outsource Java development or content writing or data entry, the vendor has a virtual employee ready for them.

Even if the vendor does not have an employee that fits the job description of the client, its efficient recruitment system quickly searches and screens and sends across resumes of the most suitable candidates to the client in minimum time.

Finally, once the virtual employee has been hired, the client has direct access to them. There is no via medium between the client and their virtual employee as is the case with project outsourcing where it is the project manager or team leader to whom the client has to explain their requirement. And even then, an entirely different employee is assigned to work on the project. But, here at VirtualEmployee.com, direct and smooth communication between client and employees ensures that there is no time wasted in lengthy communication or in explaining the work.

2.The dedicated virtual employee model of outsourcing is cheaper
On the face of it, a freelancer may seem to be available at an unbelievably cheap rate, but that's just one aspect of it. Many clients have discovered, much to their despair, that a freelancer may have cost them very little initially, but this particular brand of outsourcing comes with the entire gamut of uncertainties ranging from unavailability of the freelancer when they want him; delays in meeting project deadlines; and, abruptly abandoning a project in favour of a more lucrative offer. A freelancer who suddenly does the vanishing act in the middle of a project not only pushes back the project's delivery date but also necessitates that the entire exercise of recontacting with a freelancer be initiated again. By now the client is caught between the devil and the deep blue sea – they cannot afford to have their project derailed but neither are they in favour of hiring another freelancer. So, in the final analysis, a freelancer actually causes the initial modest budget to go aflutter even if the project has been a short-term, low-cost variety.

Similarly, project outsourcing is definitely more cost-prohibitive than hiring a freelancer since it does give some sort of security about the work outsourced. However, even if just one person is working on your project, you still end up paying for the entire team that is handling outsourcing.

So, hiring a virtual employee is much cheaper than either option because you get a dedicated full-time professional who is highly skilled in the domain you are working in. In addition, this virtual employee would cost you merely a fraction of what it would cost to hire a similarly qualified professional in the US or the UK.

3.The dedicated virtual employee model of outsourcing is better
Outsourcing to a third party always involves an element of risk, uncertainty and, at the end of the day, it is actually a calculated gamble.

It may work out, on the other hand, it may not. But, when a client partners with VirtualEmployee.com, that element of risk and uncertainty is completely absent for the simple reason that the virtual employee is actually an addition to the client's team rather than an external third party. The employee works from the controlled, well-equipped office of the vendor, under the constant supervision of the HR managers; they work exclusively and only for one client over a lengthy period of time; the employee has access to IT support and back-up; and you are spared the bother and responsibility of issues like taxes and employee benefits. The biggest advantage, of course, is that the client gets to select and hire the remote employee after intensive recruitment process. So, the client knows who they are hiring and no nasty surprises will be sprung up mid-work.

So, it goes without saying that the dedicated virtual employee model of outsourcing can make any outsourcing a huge success.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/09/2011 -- Recently, an Australian client, whose company models homes for energy-efficiency, came all the way down to the Virtual Employee Pvt Ltd office on a special mission. It was purely a business trip – to personally train his chosen virtual employee (a qualified engineer) on the work that was going to be outsourced. He spent an entire week in VE office, spending time bonding with his Indian remote employee, mingling with the HR staff and teaching and training his virtual employee about floor plans and other engineering essentials.

These are the excerpts from his interview.

1.Why did you choose VirtualEmployee.com?
Well, earlier I had used Freelancer.com very briefly and that was the first time I had become aware of outsourcing. A Google search directed me to VirtualEmployee.com. What I liked were several things – my candidate would be my employee; he would be supervised; his working conditions were good; and the most important part, Indian time zones were far more favourable to Australia than the American ones.

2.What impressed you about your candidate?
He is very qualified mechanical engineer – a little overqualified, I guess – but I was looking for someone who could understand blue prints and floor plans, etc. We wanted someone with good educational qualifications and we could afford someone with these qualifications in India rather than hire someone under-qualified but who would have to be trained there in Australia.

3.What made you come all the way down here and train him?
We could have trained him over Skype but it would have been difficult. Although English is not a problem in India at all – apart from, well, the accent – there are certain technical terms that could be better explained in person. To commit properly to this outsourced project, I thought I had to come here and give a sort of a comprehensive training.

4.Could it not have been done over Skype or through video conferencing?
Maybe, but it would have been difficult showing drawings and explaining technical terms. It has been, on the whole, a rather comprehensive and intensive training.

5.Do you think it is worth coming all the way?
Oh yes, very definitely, it has been worth coming all the way here, meeting my virtual employee in person and being able to be available to train and answer all his queries as well. I thought it would last 2-3 days but it has taken slightly longer but thats alright because we are looking at this as a long-term investment.

6.How was your experience? Did you like what you saw?
It has been very good. I have liked what I have seen and we were looked after very well. I am looking at this as a long-term business arrangement. Ultimately, I want to make my remote employee sufficiently independent – within reason, of course – so that he does no't need baby-sitting, so to speak.

It is in deed an index of VirtualEmployee.com success when a foreign client takes the trouble to come all the way down here, spend time and train their virtual employees. Obviously, it is well worth the effort.

An employee as opposed to the traditional face of outsourcing, the ubiquitous freelancer.

How does it achieve this? What is so unique about VirtualEmployee business model?

This vendor can easily provide you with as many remote employees that you wish. All tailor-made to suit your specific requirements. Which brings us to yet another unique aspect of this outsourcing service provider – its recruitment system.

3.The recruitment process is one of the chief reasons why clients give a favourable feedback to this vendor. Every client request is meticulously attended to, with the HR executives swinging into action straightaway. Resumes are scanned and then sent across to the client; interviews are arranged – both by the HR and the technical team as well as by the client. It is only when the client is fully satisfied with the candidate that the employee is hired and starts working. So, whether you are a SME or a individual, you do not have to settle for any random freelancer who may or may not have given the honest credentials on the website.

4.Flexibility of the virtual team size is yet another very attractive feature of this vendor. Unlike in a real office, where scaling down a team size could result in a lot of unpleasantness or legal wrangles, here it is as easy as an intimation email to VirtualEmployee HR executives and the work is done.

5.The vendor's office effectively works as an offshore extension of your own office in India, with the HR and IT and Accounts team, all working as your representatives, collectively helping to monitor and supervise your employee. Yes, the virtual employee may be working from the vendor's office but they are considered as your dedicated human resource.

6.All the operational overheads such as infrastructure, hardware, software and communication technology are taken care of by the service provider, leaving you free to focus only on working with your virtual employee. This is a huge advantage and one that few vendors can provide.

So, if you are looking for a flexible and cost-effective way to outsource, VirtualEmployee.com is an option worth considering. Others have benefited and it may just be your turn next!

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/08/2011 -- VirtualEmployee.com, one of the leading outsourcing service providers of India, also offers its worldwide clientele the choice of two recruitment services – one which is Free and the other which is called the Gold Recruitment Service. The demarcation has been created keeping in view the large volume of requests that Virtual Employee Pvt Ltd receives on a daily basis from clients all over the world looking for professionals in various fields.

For the Free service, it may extend beyond 4 weeks. Within 3-4 days of receiving the client request, resumes are sent to those in the Gold Recruitment service. This can go up to a maximum period of one week for rare skills.

Is the future of work independent of geographical location? Yes! This is because as more and more companies embrace outsourcing to increase profits and save costs, it is the virtual employee or the freelancer who is in much demand. And it doesn't really matter that both these entities sit separated from their clients some halfway across the globe.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/01/2011 -- As technology continues to carve new pathways and the Internet strengthens its total domination over the business community worldwide, it does seem that the future of work will be independent of geographical location.

The fact that physical distance is not a barrier to a smooth flow of work can be demonstrated in the two facets of outsourcing – freelancing and remote staffing. As more and more companies embrace outsourcing to increase profits and save costs, it is the virtual employee or the freelancer who is in much demand.

Outsourcing has already proved that geographical distances (nor the time zone barriers for that matter) don't really make a difference. Freelancers sitting in developing countries like India began to work for companies based in the US or the UK, with both parties benefitting enormously. From freelancing, it was only natural that the next level of evolution be achieved soon. And it was, in the form of remote employment. The virtual employee is the new emerging face of outsourcing, adding a fillip to the burgeoning outsourcing industry like never before.

A freelancer usually worked in a far away developing country, often from home and handled multiple assignments from multiple clients from around the world. The freelancer was affordable but skilled and was a great cost and time-saving investment.

The virtual employee, on the other hand, is several notches superior to a freelancer. The remote employee works exclusively for one client, and on a full-time, exclusive manner. They can be supervised and monitored and work out of the controlled office of the service vendor.

Today, a big or small company in the US can outsource work not merely to a freelancer but by actually hiring a full-fledged virtual employee from say, India. This remote employee would work for them exactly like any of their locally hired employee, except that the former would cost them a mere fraction of what it would to hire a similarly qualified person back in the US or the UK.

So, today, a software company in Louisiana can hire a whole team of software programmers and developers from India, all working under one roof, and only for that company. This is because there are reputed, established outsourcing vendors in India who specialize in providing highly skilled, talented remote employees on a full-time, dedicated manner.

India boasts of an impressive talent pool of skilled and talented, and most importantly, cheap labour – all hugely attractive to the companies in the US or the UK. Add to that the proficiency in English of the average Indian professional and it is like hitting the jackpot.

Thanks to the advances made in Information Technology, all the tools for a smooth online collaboration are easily available, thus making the management of virtual teams a breeze. Modern means of communication mean that the virtual employee is just a mouse click or a telephone call away.

Transforming a faceless entity into real flesh-and-blood person is the newest form of communication with a remote or virtual team – video conferencing. This communication in real time completely dissolves any perceptions of time and distance, enabling both parties to see and interact with each other in a natural manner.

VirtualEmployee.com's revolutionary new concept of video conferencing has taken outsourcing up a few notches. With clients now actually seeing their candidates face-to-face in front of them as they conduct their interviews, the geographical and time zone difference suddenly seems to have disappeared.

Wilmington, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/31/2011 -- VirtualEmployee.com's recently launched video conferencing facility is the potent new tool that is creating a very favourable response with its worldwide clientele. VE's state-of-the-art Video Conferencing room is where 'east meets west' and the client interview part of the entire recruitment process is conducted. Needless to add, the response from the clients has been gratifying since they can actually see their candidates in front of them. Without a doubt, video conferencing is the new face (and future) of outsourcing.

A quick chat with VE's recruitment team revealed several interesting facts.

Both the client and candidates were very comfortable in this new format. Seeing is believing for most people, and when the working relationship is a long-distance one, a visual acts as a reassurance of sorts. The perception of geographical distance and the time zone difference simply dissolves. A few candidates did get a bit conscious of the fact that they were being watched, but the clients felt totally comfortable. Video conferencing helped the client to be able to read the body language of their potential employee just the way they would do if they were doing the face-to-face interview in real life.

That video conferencing has been an unqualified success is proved by the significant increase in clients' hiring the candidates after interacting with them via video conferencing.

The advantages of this video conferencing have been two-fold. Firstly, the client can read the body language of the candidate along with their facial expressions. This helps change the candidate from a faceless entity to someone with whom they can actually have a real-life conversation. Secondly, the candidate is free to write/ take down notes about the client's technical requirements just in case he is assigned to do a test later.

This service has become very popular with our clients, and is free, although there are some clients who actually request for the video service to be switched off. They are in a minority and are just comfortable interacting with the candidate with a Skype call. Those who see the candidates on the big screen and talk with them, feel happy and assured that VE is for real.

On the whole, VirtualEmployee.com's video conferencing facility has made this remote staffing company's presence felt in the country for the client. The employee may be 'virtual' but is reassuring real!
