Taking Over a Maid from a Trusted Source
One effective way to hire a transfer maid is by taking over the services of a maid from a relative, friend, or colleague who no longer needs one. This could be due to reasons like their children growing older, job changes, or relocation to another country. This method allows you to save money and gain a reliable account of the maid’s performance from someone you trust. If you’re unsure how to handle the work permit process for a transfer maid, you can approach our maid agency for assistance. This service, known as “Direct Hiring,” involves the agency managing documentation and submitting the work permit application on your behalf.
Another option is exploring online forums or groups to post your job requirements or connect with transfer maids who have shared their profiles. However, be cautious of illegal agents who might approach you without a licence to operate as recruiters. Dealing with such agents can lead to financial scams. Ensure you confirm that the maid has a signed release paper from her current employer before proceeding. Without this document, the hiring process cannot continue. Unfortunately, some employers may refuse to release their maids due to the challenges of finding a replacement, especially during the pandemic.
