Finding a Domestic Helper in Hong Kong 
By: Alice Sy
More and more domestic helpers are being employed in Hong Kong. Finding a domestic helper in Hong Kong is easy with the right resources. And there are various ways to find the right domestic helper for you. Here are some of them.
Referral from friends and relatives is a common way to find domestic helpers in Hong Kong. Priorities are given to referrals simply because your friend or relative who referred the domestic helper to you somehow know the person. There are also cases in which your maid is the one referring her friends or relatives who might want to work as domestic helpers. This is also a good way to find domestic helpers. Generally referrals are reliable in terms of character and performance of domestic helpers to be hired, but there can never be a complete guarantee of the helpers' character because each individual is different.
Hiring a domestic helper through a traditional agency is very popular. There is an ever increasing growth in recruitment agencies doing all the screening, evaluation and processing of necessary documents for you. The agency takes care of assigning the right domestic helper you are looking for based on your requirements.
With the fast changing technology, online domestic helper websites in Hong Kong is becoming a trend. Such websites provide profiles, photos and other personal details of the domestic helpers willing to work for you. And based on the database available, thousands of qualifications can match your requirements, and there is always an option to do advance searching. This function enables thorough screening on the part of the employer until you find the one you are looking for.
In relation with the use of internet to hire a domestic helper, a forum is also a very powerful venue. Exchange of interests between the employer and the domestic helpers can be freely discussed. This active communication is a healthy way of establishing the relationship between the parties even before the hiring take place.
On the other hand, posting information and advertisements on public establishments like Park N' Shop and Wellcome superstores is as helpful as the other activities in hiring domestic helpers. These places are regular spots where domestic helpers go not only to do their regular work, but more so to look for more interesting job opportunities.
Church congregation and other organizations offer friendly environment in looking for domestic helpers. Organizations give employer some assurance on the general values of the members, thus, if sharing the same beliefs matters to you, then, look for domestic helpers from within your organization.
And lastly, if you are residing in a big residential estate, the domestic helpers normally come to your place offering their services. Therefore, it is very helpful to post your domestic help vacancy in your building's bulletin board.
