What employers look for in a house help
For a house-help role, employers screen first on proximity and trust: name your neighbourhood, say whether you live in, and whether you would sleep on site. Name the specific tasks — ironing, cooking, childcare — rather than "housework". A reference from a previous family, with a number, counts for more than any formula.
