In this conversation, I sat down with John Jonas, founder of OnlineJobs.ph (https://www.onlinejobs.ph/), to break down the differences between Upwork and OnlineJobs.ph. John shares why his platform has become the go-to hiring hub for entrepreneurs looking to build long-term teams, especially in the Philippines. We dive deep into why Upwork’s fees and short-term work structure are pushing talent away and how OnlineJobs.ph offers a more stable, cost-effective solution. ✎ We also get into the hiring process—how I transitioned from Upwork, the challenges of building a reliable team, and the strategies that worked for me. John explains the unique Filipino work culture, how loyalty and job stability play a big role, and why so many professionals prefer direct hiring over freelancing platforms. If you’re looking for video editors, virtual assistants, or even CFO-level hires, this episode walks through how to attract top-tier talent while keeping costs low. ✎ Beyond just recruitment, we discuss the future of remote hiring, the best ways to manage a global team, and how OnlineJobs.ph is evolving to make hiring even easier. Whether you’re hiring your first VA or scaling a remote team, this conversation is packed with insights on finding, managing, and keeping the best people for your business.
