Hire Experienced Personal Assistants Through Premier Staffing Agency

The timeline for finding the right candidate varies depending on your specific requirements and availability. On average, our clients meet qualified candidates within 2-3 weeks of their initial consultation. For more specialized positions or unique requirements, the process may take 4-6 weeks. We prioritize quality over speed, ensuring each match aligns perfectly with your needs, lifestyle, and household dynamics. 

Throughout the process, we maintain constant communication and provide regular updates on our progress. Our 60 years of experience have taught us that taking the time to find the right fit results in longer, more successful placements. Rush placements are available for urgent situations, though we always recommend allowing adequate time for thorough vetting and interviews.

Every candidate in our network undergoes comprehensive vetting before we present them to clients. This includes criminal background checks at federal, state, and county levels, verification of all previous employment with direct supervisor references, educational credential verification, and driving record checks when relevant. We also conduct in-depth personal interviews to assess professionalism, communication skills, and cultural fit. 

For positions involving financial responsibilities, we can arrange credit checks with the candidate’s consent. Social media screening helps us understand the candidate’s public persona and professionalism. We verify legal work authorization and maintain copies of all required documentation. Our rigorous screening process is one reason we maintain a 99% placement success rate—we only present candidates we would feel confident placing in our own homes.

Yes, we stand behind every placement with our comprehensive guarantee program. If a placed candidate doesn’t work out within the first 90 days for any reason, we will find a replacement at no additional fee. This guarantee period can be extended for certain premium placements. Our commitment doesn’t end after placement—we provide ongoing support to both clients and staff members to ensure long-term success. 

We conduct regular check-ins during the first six months to address any concerns or adjustments needed. Our goal is to build lasting professional relationships, not just fill positions. With our 99% success rate, replacement services are rarely needed, but when they are, we act swiftly and efficiently. We also offer trial periods for clients who want to ensure compatibility before making a long-term commitment. This risk-free approach gives you peace of mind throughout the hiring process.

Compensation varies significantly based on experience level, responsibilities, location, and whether the position is live-in or live-out. In the Beverly Hills and Los Angeles area, full-time positions typically range from $60,000 to $150,000 annually, with highly experienced candidates for complex roles commanding higher salaries. Part-time hourly rates generally range from $30 to $75 per hour. 

Live-in positions often include room and board as part of the compensation package, which affects base salary calculations. We help you structure competitive packages that attract top talent while remaining within your budget. Benefits typically include health insurance, paid time off, sick days, and sometimes retirement contributions. We provide detailed market research and compensation guidance during your consultation to ensure you’re offering rates that will attract the caliber of candidates you desire while remaining fair and competitive.

Our 60-year heritage sets us apart in an industry where many agencies come and go. Since 1963, we’ve built an unmatched reputation in Beverly Hills and beyond by treating every placement as a reflection of our legacy. Unlike larger corporate agencies that rely on databases and algorithms, we take a boutique, personalized approach—personally knowing both our clients and candidates. 

Our principals, Melanie and Narina, bring over 30 years of combined expertise and are involved in every placement. We maintain a 99% success rate by investing time in understanding your household culture, communication style, and specific needs before presenting candidates. Our network includes pre-vetted professionals who have been carefully cultivated over decades, many through referrals from successful placements. We’re not just filling positions; we’re creating partnerships that often last years or even decades. This white-glove, relationship-focused approach is our hallmark.
