JobDoc, is that company legit
0:04
Hi guys. My name is Len and welcome to my channel. If you're visiting or passing by, do not forget to subscribe
0:09
for your regular welcome back. So guys, today we're talking about JobDoc
0:12
I want to say my two cents because I've been getting a lot of messages
0:17
People asking me like, Hey, you told us to apply JobDoc, what's going on
0:20
We're not even getting interviews. What's the tea? JobDoc is a legit company
0:25
I was employed by them. I think in 2021, I worked for them, um, for like six months and I left
0:32
because I got something new. That was it. That's the tea. Like there was nothing crazy about it
0:38
And do you know that the inventor that I have in my house two years
0:41
later, because it was expensive. I actually got it for free from JobDoc
0:46
They sent it to me from JobDoc like, but now I'm not sure if they still
0:51
give, uh, or send you a UPSs or inventors. At the time I was there, they used to, right
0:57
So now let us talk about the company and everything that I know. Right
1:01
Then you can make an informed decision and all of that. So first things first, JobDoc is, um, recruitment agency, sort of, um
1:09
they're labor broker in it. That's the way they're labor broker. So they place you with law firms that are in the U S a lot of people
1:18
I feel like law is a very big deal in America. Like so many boutique law firms that have got like one lawyer, one attorney
1:28
two attorneys working there, and they make a lot of money. People are only swingers in America
1:34
People are always divorcing. The lady that I was working for was a divorced lawyer, a family lawyer
1:39
And I promised you like every day we'd get like 20 calls from customers
1:43
clients wanting an attorney and we'd charge them like a retainer fee of
1:48
like $5,000 and they'd end up paying like $20,000 to be, um, divorced
1:54
And she was like a small law firm. It was just her and one other person. And like two, like, well, like the six of us. Right
2:01
And she was making bank and she was obviously paying us peanuts. Hence, you know, the hire offshore
2:07
So that's a JobDoc, right? So you're mostly going to be placed with a law firm
2:10
It depends. Um, mostly they look for salespeople and they say sales, you know, like cold
2:15
calling, um, people will normally call in asking for, um, to speak to our attorney
2:21
So you need to find out if the attorney can actually help them. Attorney does not have time to be vetting everybody
2:27
So obviously you've got like a scripting, they call it sales, really where you ask
2:31
the customer and you kind of need to close them for them to be able to want to retain
2:36
us for the legal services. Right. But it's, it's, it's, it's easy really. Right
2:41
So that's the one job. Uh, then you need to follow up, calling the customer, making sure that
2:46
they've paid and everything. The other role that they usually have would be your billing
2:51
Billing are people that make sure that, remember I told you that customers aren't retainer or it's a once or forever
2:57
But what happens is with a legal issue, the lawyer cannot know how much is going
3:05
to cost you to get divorced, for example, right? Your partner, there could be a back and forth
3:10
You guys could start fighting over the house. You guys could start fighting over custody
3:14
You guys could start fighting over the, the, the, the pets, whatever it is
3:18
So each time you go to, each time you go to courts, there's a fee attached
3:24
Each time the attorney sends you an email, mail, whatever it is, all that is billed
3:31
That if you go to court, there's a, there's a amount for that
3:35
Like it's, it's a whole thing, right? So billing, you're in charge of that
3:38
And then you send out the bills. The customer will be like, it's like a payout. They'll know like on the 25th, we sent them an email on the 22nd, we did this on
3:45
the whatever, we went to court, whatever. So all that needs to be, obviously you used like a CRM, but the information needs
3:53
to be checked that it's accurate to be sent out to the customer and the customer
3:58
needs to pay, you also need to follow up on those payments, right? Just, they're not a big deal
4:02
You can just, you just give them a call, remind them. Most of them just didn't pay up because they want their, they want to, the legal
4:09
case to move forward. So they do pay. So it's not even a big deal. And also they do hire paralegals
4:14
With the paralegals, I realized that they don't necessarily look for people with
4:18
law degrees, but with these days, I do see that they are advertising someone
4:22
with a legal background. But when I worked there, they would just hire anyone that does office admin
4:26
Basically what they would call like paralegals, what you'll be doing is you're making sure that all the information that is required in the court packets
4:34
documents, it's already on the system. So all the attorney needs to do is just like pull information
4:40
the day they go to court. So what I used to realize it's not like the attorney would obsess over your
4:45
case the whole time, because remember, we've got, like I'm telling you, we've got 10 people calling in a day, right
4:51
Nevermind the people emailing old cases, cases of good drug, people get divorced
4:54
like over a two year period. So the day that the attorney has to go to court, all she has to do is like go on
4:59
your profile, see what's the, so it's your job as the paralegal to make sure
5:03
that information is there. We'd hire investigators to do all of these things and whatever
5:09
Like, let's say you say, Ooh, I only earned $10 an hour
5:13
We need the, we need proof. And your partner is saying, no, this guy earns $18 an hour
5:19
So get an investigator to investigate and see what all the information needs to be in your file
5:24
So that's the job of the paralegal. Right. Um, so yeah, guys, that's, that's, that's saying retainers and all of that
5:31
So that's what the personal assistant admin work for job DAG used to do
5:36
Right. So they would have people from like any background, right? Like if you're going to get an, if you've got an accounting qualification, you
5:42
could get the billing, billing role. If you've done sales and marketing admin business type, you could get
5:48
like the sales stroke admin one. If you have done admin, I guess also you do the paralegal one legal
5:54
I was hired as a virtual assistant, but mostly I was doing, I was, I was a
6:01
multi-talented guy, so I was doing like a whole lot of stuff, which also, to be honest, kind of led me to being a bit bent out because at some point I was
6:07
not doing their marketing and I say marketing, I mean, I was meaning their website, I was liaising with the marketing company, making sure social
6:14
media is on, is like tight. I was making sure that customers were making sure that deals are being
6:19
signed, like the retainers with the customer. So I now handle a lot of things like in six months, like I'd been around
6:25
departments and it's also a great place for you to get into a law firm that's
6:29
small, you can actually go around doing a whole lot of stuff, learning
6:34
things and all of that. Now, so that's the jobs at JobDoc
6:38
Now let's talk about their hiring, right? With their hiring, JobDoc, when I did, it was like, I don't want to say it was
6:45
working in the park because I know some people that didn't get the jobs at that time, but you'd get interviewed
6:51
I was interviewed by a lady called Pallisa. She was based in South Africa. She's the one that interviewed me and the interview was not even hectic, right
6:57
She was wanting to get a vibe of me to hear if my English was fluent. And she also asked me like those trivial questions such as, Hey, if you're stuck
7:04
on the, in a desert, what would you want to bring and everything, stuff like that
7:08
Easy stuff. But again, we also spoke about what I can bring to the table and everything, right
7:13
Once I passed that, then they did the checks to see, you know, my
7:18
internet, my laptop and all of that. Then, um, now guys, to be honest, I can't really remember
7:23
I'm trying to think, but yeah, it wasn't, it was a pretty straightforward interview
7:29
Um, then, uh, the next thing that I had to do was to do DAC university
7:34
DAC university, a lot of people did feel there. The trick that I can tell you if you do make it to DAC university is
7:40
You need to participate, you know, um, you get those questions and
7:44
whatever afterwards you discuss. So during the discussion, make sure you participate, participate during
7:50
the discussion of DAC university. Um, if you can be the first, raise up your hand, whatever
7:56
If you are like lax, chill, they won't pick you. Right. DAC university, I was at DAC university
8:01
Then it took me like a week. I was already placed with the client. With the client, it was so easy, guys
8:06
I just spoke to this lady for like five minutes. Like she just wanted to hear my vibe
8:11
Really just asked me like, Oh, learn, whatever, whatever. Just. It was like talking to a friend who's asking me like, Hey, I come in for lunch
8:17
That's what, that's what this lady did. She doesn't want to know if I can speak English, if I'm confident, because
8:22
remember JobDoc sends them a packet of my CV, that's a video that you do
8:27
in introducing yourself, they send that to the customer, the client already
8:32
So the client is already going through this, the video, your testimonial, whatever, your marks at DAC university, and also JobDoc
8:40
writes like a paragraph about your summary, about what you are good at
8:44
So the client customer where you're going to be placed, it already knows
8:48
everything they need to know about you. So the interview, she interviewed me while she was driving
8:52
I think she was on her way to court. She interviewed me for like five minutes. And then like an hour later, the recruiter from JobDoc told me like
8:58
Hey, when can you start? And I'm like, on Monday. She's like, great. On Monday I started
9:02
So that was my journey at JobDoc. Now to finish off you guys, I know that right now they've got loads of
9:10
jobs that they are posting. I'll tell you what people are being offered
9:14
People have been coming onto my TikTok DMs mostly and sending me messages
9:20
saying, I learned I've been offered a JobDoc, whatever, so JobDoc is hiring
9:25
However, they do have a lot of jobs that they just have opened on
9:29
I do think that also the HR department could also be building their database
9:37
A lot of companies do that where they've got jobs that they keep running just to
9:40
always see what's out there in the market, just to keep their reserves in
9:44
Because people do quit. People, it's a freelance job. It doesn't really pay much
9:48
Right now they're paying like R22,000, which is a lot, I guess. When I worked there, I earned $900 and I was working from what
9:57
4? 3.30? 2.11? $800. I don't know. But now it's even better, right? R22,000
10:05
For me that time, it would be like $14,000. I'm not sure. Ah, the rate, guys. But yeah, that's the thing about JobDoc
10:12
Do apply. You never know. You could get lucky and then they pick you, right
10:16
But also, don't put your heart and soul into checking up on them every day
10:24
If they get back to you, they do get back to you. If they don't, keep on applying
10:29
Don't get caught up in the whole thing that, hey, I sent my CV to JobDoc and
10:32
like two weeks, you don't send any CV anywhere else. Market is tough
10:37
A lot of people now know about JobDoc. When I applied, people did not know about JobDoc
10:41
I actually heard about it from someone who was working there and she told
10:45
somebody who was a friend and that person told me, right? So I heard it from word of mouth, but now everyone knows about it
10:52
Remember, this was like two years ago. But anyway guys, JobDoc is legit
10:56
I've given you all the information I know about it. Other than that, remember, you are amazing
11:01
Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Check my description box for jobs, info, anything that you might need
