Hong Kong Domestic Helpers-Dispel Common Biases when Hiring Domestic Helpers

By Alice Sy


Employers hiring Hong Kong Domestic Helpers naturally have their own criteria for judging which is expected. If you are an employer though you might want to double check these standards, they may be too limiting and has the potential to distract you from getting the worthy candidate.

Perfection is impossible-they are all the same, the right one does not exist. Sure it's true that there is no perfect domestic helper but there is the best for you. All you have to do is consider your expectations and better prioritize which comes first and which ones hardly matter. You'll be surprised and have fun in the recruitment process analyzing candidate's qualifications this way.

Hong Kong domestic helpers of relatives or friends can be your helper too. While it is respectful to consider their recommendation or hire someone similar to their helpers, their success is not guaranteed to be yours. You are still the master of your own home and only you can weigh in on all options. The right move therefore is to have many options beyond their recommendation.

You judge helpers by their family experience. It can't be helped. There is a common notion that those who have worked for foreigners are likely to work better in your home and those with no such experience are just average. This may be a plus but never a deciding factor. Consider a candidate based on skills and character. This way, you'll be surprised in the end that you actually picked the right one.

Hong Kong domestic helpers come in surprising packages too and they may disappoint you if you try to stick your stubborn standards. The best move is to be ready for anything and don't close your doors on anyone, this way you'll get a qualified helper fit for your home and family.
