In Brazil and the USA, the role of in-person assistants has evolved with the rise of remote work culture. While previously standard, these positions are now often distinguished from virtual assistants in job postings. In corporate Brazil (particularly São Paulo), in-person assistants remain common for C-level executives. The term reflects the post-pandemic workplace distinction between remote and on-site roles.
