Executive Assistant Staffing Agency,
Skills-Tested, 48-Hour Shortlist

We place executive assistants, senior EAs, C-suite support and chief-of-staff-adjacent professionals permanently across every US metro. Calendar mechanics and systems are tested rather than described, and references come from the executive actually supported, not from HR.

What does an executive assistant staffing agency do?

An executive assistant staffing agency finds the person a principal will trust with their calendar, their inbox and their confidential material. GlobalCybers places them permanently onto your payroll rather than as temporary support. There is no licence in this field, so we test what actually predicts success: timed assessments on the calendar, travel and communication systems the role uses, and references taken from the executive the candidate supported, asked specifically about gatekeeping and judgement. RPO at $2,999/mo, or Direct Hire at 12-20% on a successful hire, and candidates are never charged.

Covering with temporary support?

Need a permanent EA instead of rotating temporary cover?

Temporary executive support can run a diary and cannot do the job, because the job is judgement built on knowing a principal's preferences, relationships and priorities. That takes months to acquire and leaves in a day. A permanent hire is a one-time fee and becomes more valuable every quarter rather than resetting.

Credential Verification

Every Licence Verified Before Delivery

Unverified executive assistants never appear on a shortlist. We check directly against the issuing authority, not self-reported documentation.

Calendar judgement, tested

The difference between a good EA and a great one is judgement about which meeting moves, and that can be assessed. We run scenario tests on conflicting priorities, last-minute travel disruption and competing principals, and put the reasoning in the profile rather than a line about being 'highly organised'.

Scenario testedConflict handlingTravel disruption

Systems assessment, scored

Outlook and Teams calendar mechanics, delegate access, travel and expense platforms (Concur, Navan) and document handling are all tested with timed assessments, and you see the score. Executive support fails on mechanics more often than on attitude.

Outlook / TeamsConcur / NavanScored

Discretion and board-material handling

C-suite support means board decks, compensation data and pre-announcement information. We screen for how a candidate has actually handled confidential material, confirm they have operated under a formal confidentiality obligation, and take a reference on it.

ConfidentialityBoard materialReferenced

References from the principal

We take references from the executive supported rather than from HR, and ask about gatekeeping, anticipation and what the EA handled without being asked. That conversation is the most predictive part of the process, so it is never skipped.

Employer Value

What an Unfilled Executive Assistant Seat Costs, and How We Cut It

An executive without an assistant spends hours a week on scheduling and administration, which is the most expensive way an organisation can buy calendar management.

48 hrs
Days, not weeks, to fill

A verified 3-5 shortlist of executive assistants lands within 48 hours of a complete brief, instead of the weeks the seat stays uncovered.

100%
Tested before you interview

Assessment scores and scenario reasoning are attached to every profile, so an interview is about chemistry and trust rather than a skills audit.

$0
Upfront on Direct Hire

Pay only when you hire, at 12-20% of first-year salary. RPO is a flat $2,999/month for continuous administrative & operations hiring, with no per-hire fee.

90 days
A bad fit is not a sunk cost

If a placed executive assistant leaves or is let go within 90 days, we source a replacement free under both models.

OSHA 10/30 and trade safety cards (e.g. NFPA 70E) verified against DOL-authorised provider records.

County, state, and federal checks run FCRA-compliant, plus 5- or 10-panel drug screening aligned to your jobsite policy.

Right-to-work & E-Verify

Form I-9 completed and E-Verify confirmed before start date, so every placement is work-authorized.

Insurance & liability. GlobalCybers carries general and professional liability cover, and every direct-hire placement goes onto your payroll as a W-2 employee, keeping worker-classification risk inside a compliant process.

FAQ

Executive Assistant Staffing Agency FAQ

How quickly can you deliver an executive assistant shortlist?

A verified shortlist of 3-5 EAs is delivered within 48 hours of a complete brief, with assessment scores attached. We need the principals supported, the systems in use, travel expectations and how much confidential material the role touches.

Do you place temporary executive assistants?

No. GlobalCybers places permanent EAs only, as full-time hires onto your payroll. Temporary executive support and temp-to-hire trials are outside our model.

How do you assess an EA when there is no qualification to check?

By testing and by reference. Timed assessments cover calendar mechanics, travel and expense platforms, and document handling; scenario tests cover conflicting priorities and travel disruption; and the reference comes from the executive the candidate actually supported, asked directly about gatekeeping and anticipation. IAAP CAP certification is confirmed where held, but it is a signal rather than the assessment.

What do executive assistants earn nationally?

Per BLS OEWS May 2025, executive secretaries and executive administrative assistants (SOC 43-6011) earn a national median of $76,590 across 459,910 jobs, with about 50,000 openings a year against a 1.6% projected decline through 2034. C-suite support in major metros sits well above that median, and the gap between an EA role and a general administrative role has widened rather than closed.
