You need to choose between me, Jane and Kane for you [assistant]

1. You need to choose between me, Jane and Kane for you assistant.

I saw the sentence in my reference book for major verbs.
I was wondering why "assistant" is positioned at the end of sentence, not after "choose."
Thank you in advance for your help.
