Should we choose local or overseas domestic helpers?
我們應該選擇本地還是海外的家傭？
Local – face-to-face interviews are possible. Familiar with Hong Kong culture and local work experience, you may not need to spend too much time training domestic helpers. Overseas – they are more open to change and accept the challenge of a new environment. And they may have worked in families in Taiwan and the Middle East, where they needed longer hours and fewer vacations. Also, helpers spend a lot of money in agency/training centers in their home countries, and they tend to face more pressure to work harder to do new jobs.
本地 – 可以面對面訪談。熟悉香港文化， 有當地的工作經驗，你可能不用花太多時間去培訓家傭。 海外 – 他們更願意接受改變並接受挑戰新環境。而他們可能曾在台灣和中東的家庭工作過，在那邊需要更長的工作時間且假期更少。 此外，傭工在其所在國家的代理/培訓中心花費了大量資金，他們往往面臨更大的壓力，所以會更加努力地做好新工作。
