Questions regarding work Experience

• Can the person prepare different types of dishes?
• Had there been any problems with his/her past employers? How did he/she resolve them?

Your schedule

It is very important that he/she works as per your schedule. You wouldn’t want to end up being late in office as your domestic worker couldn’t get your lunchbox ready on time. Is she willing to work as per the schedule or is he/she raising too many objections? Some examples may be:

• You should have a clear idea about your family’s weekly schedule. Communicate the same in details to her.
• Make sure to ask which day he/she wants as a weekly rest day? Would there be any problems if it were to be changed?
• If the person wants to take annual leave during the year when would that be and for how long?
