Hiring Private Household Staff

Eden blogIn the absence of a well-timed personal recommendation through word of mouth, using an experienced, reputable agency is the most efficient way to find the right Private Household Staff to match the needs of you and your family.

Advertising, interviewing and recruiting staff yourself without professional input from an agency can be incredibly time consuming and frustrating, particularly if after all of your hard work you are unable to find the right match, with the type of experience and qualifications you are looking for.

Identifying your Private Household Staff through a professional agency enables you to benefit and reap the reward of their specialist knowledge and experience.

DEFINE YOUR REQUIREMENTS

Putting time and thought into defining the exact requirements of what you are looking for and creating a list pinpointing each detail will help you to establish precisely what you need and enable you to convey these needs effectively to your recruitment agency.

Details to consider when putting your list together should include:

  • Salary
  • Hours and days required
  • Duties involved in the post
  • Is a driving licence essential?
  • Personal qualities

Include all of the details you can think of, no matter how small. Thoroughly detailing and conveying your requirements to the agency helps them to understand your needs clearly, which will enable them to select the best possible candidates for your position.

COMMUNICATE OPEN & HONESTLY WITH YOUR AGENCY

It is crucial to be open and honest from the start about your needs. When using a professional company you should feel assured of their discretion when it comes to your personal information.

Your openness will help the professionals to put forward their insight and recommendations and help you in your search for the ideal candidate.

CREATE AN ATTRACTIVE POST

Ideally, the role you are offering should look appealing to the type of top quality candidate you are seeking. It always pays to try to view your job from an outside perspective in order to create the type of job opportunity that an excellent candidate would be keen to apply for.

USING A SPECIALIST AGENCY – THE BENEFITS

Having understood your needs, your agency will present you with the best candidates with only the highest standards. Each individual put forward will have previously been thoroughly interviewed, screened and assessed by the agency to make absolutely sure that they possess the type of skills and qualities you would expect, offering you total peace of mind.

You can also rest assured that all candidates will have an up to date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) check, excellent references from previous employers and that their CV and work record has been examined in great detail to make sure that everything is in order, including all aspects of their personal documentation and identification.
