As a housekeeper, my role extends beyond mere cleaning; it encompasses organization, management of household tasks, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for residents and visitors alike. Throughout my ten years of experience, I have acquired a wide range of skills that contribute to my effectiveness in this profession. I understand the importance of maintaining cleanliness and order, which not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of a home but also promotes a healthy living condition. My daily tasks include dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, and ensuring that all areas of the house are free from clutter. Furthermore, I pay close attention to detail, recognizing that even the smallest oversight can lead to a significant impact on the overall quality of a home. In addition to basic cleaning tasks, I have learned to manage household inventories, including supplies and equipment. This management involves ensuring that cleaning products are well-stocked and properly utilized. I also incorporate eco-friendly practices, reflecting the growing trend toward sustainability in household management. Many families today are becoming increasingly conscious of their environmental impact, and I strive to use environmentally safe products whenever possible. This commitment not only helps protect our planet, but also contributes to healthier indoor air quality. Effective communication is another key aspect of my role. I have worked with diverse families and understand the importance of adapting my services to meet their specific needs and preferences.

Reason for Leaving or Why you want to leave

The decision to leave a job can be challenging and often stems from a variety of factors. In my case, after working for three years in my previous position, I made the difficult choice to leave primarily due to a poor salary structure. Leaving my job after three years was not an easy decision. However, the poor salary structure was a significant factor in my choice. It highlighted the importance of fair compensation in maintaining employee morale, ensuring financial stability, and providing opportunities for career advancement. Ultimately, this experience has underscored the necessity for organizations to evaluate their compensation strategies to retain talent and foster a positive work environment.

    (A) Most employers on our platform would require their workers to commit to a full-time job for a minimum of one full year.
    After one year, the worker may choose to continue working for the employer for more years or leave, at their sole discretion.

    If a worker frequently changes jobs within a few months or works for short periods or has multiple negative reports from employers, they may be termed unserious, and unreliable and face penalties, suspension, or even be banned from accessing additional jobs through our platform.

    📍 All workers are required to commit for at least one full year before moving on to other job opportunities or other private life plans like marriage, schooling, starting of a business etc. If these plans are within your horizon to start up within a few months, kindly do not waste any employer's time. They would prefer workers ready to firmly commit for a minimum of "one full year or more". 📍

    All workers should hereby note:
    The minimum work tenure on our platform is "one full year." Except in cases where the employer voluntarily requires shorter time periods.

    (B) INTERVIEW ETHICS: Do not "ghost" an employer after an interview or plan to deceive an employer by intending to work for just one or two months and resigning abruptly . You will be penalized for this.

    During your initial interviews, if you do not like a job offer, clearly and timely inform the employer of your acceptance or rejection of their job offer, salary rates and other terms offered, so that they can consider their options immediately and know what decisions to make.
    Always ensure that you communicate and clearly confirm your decision to employers on the spot or within 24 hours of attending their job interviews.

    Minimum work tenure does not apply in cases of physical assault on workers, consistent verbal or mental abuse, untimely or unpaid salaries, human rights violations, abuses as well other negative treatments.
    Controlled verbal correction or outburst is distinct from consistent verbal abuse, we are cognizant of this fact.

    Our goal and drive continue to be that, employers and their workers enjoy long-term value and mutual fulfilment in their work relationships.
