Im looking for an employee for 1-2 days a week.

Where's a good place to find someone?

Cheers

Depends the best person you’ll find will be looking back at you in the mirror.

[Smudger]

At the end of the rainbow ! 

Ask yourself this - what sort of person are you going to get for 1 or 2 days a week ?

Then ask why do they want only 1 or 2 days a week ?

For those hours you really are (if you want reliable) someone who is over 55 and semi- retired

We always get a good response from indeed - I would specify that they do you a CV and covering letter - if they can't do this don't even think about an interview

To be honest I want someone that is young, 20's - early 30's.

I don't think window cleaning is that suitable for older people in the long run. Had a late 40's bloke before and he was slow. He was also fat.

I eventually want him to get up to 5 days a week.

What are indeed's fees Darran?

[deeege]

They’ll be queuing up to work for you 1-2 days per week

Jay it’s not window cleaning like it used to be m8 is it you are pushing a pole about the place,if you can walk without the need of a Zimmer frame you can clean windows with a pole physically.
Although it sounds easy it takes time to learn how to clean effectively,I wouldn’t take anyone on with a lard arse you’ll have trouble holding a pole with something beige like a sausage roll in one hand.

I agree its not a killer like scaffolding or plastering but I just think a young person would be good if physically fit and hopefully more mouldable than someone older. I could be wrong of course.

[NWH]

When someone first starts using a pole they will ache like they’ve been run over it takes some getting used to,you need to get someone that has bills to pay.
The people who look for the young ones are just looking to  pay little they are easier to mould but they are unreliable and couldn’t give a toss if they let you down when you have a big day on,you can tell if they are fools after the first couple of hours the vast majority are so it won’t take long m8 if they can’t stop looking at their phone just go round to their door and let them out 👍.

saw this advert posted on a facebook group ages back and screen shot it for such an occasion.....

[NWH]

Yeah and that would apply to about 95 out of 100 applicants lol,that just about summed it up that advert.

Someone with bills to pay will be looking for more than the 1-2 days work per week on offer tho.

[Richard iSparkle]

I use indeed and get plenty of applicants

Darren’s spot in about thinking about the reason why someone would want to work two days a week

I think you sound muddled as to what you want

You want a person who is young, is happy to work 1 or 2 days a week, but also wants to work 5 days a week.

Realistically you ll get one or the other

Have a clearer idea what the position you need filling is and then advertise clearly for it.

So if it’s 1-2 days a week don’t start talking about possibly 5 days in the future...

[NWH]

You’ll get more offers of better people with 2 days a week and more often than not they’ll be older,I’ve had a few in their mid 50s wanting work a couple of days a week that are due their pension N. Power and British Gas workers.
Anyone young will or should want full time work.

[TomCrowther]

Nothing wrong with a bit of fat and slow.
As previously said, Indeed is a good source and you need to be prepared to kiss a few frogs.

[NWH]

It takes no more than a couple of hours to know in some cases 5 minutes what you want is someone that starts telling you how to to it the first morning they turn up,far better to have help at hand when you need it for larger jobs tbh.
If you employ these days you need to do it properly pay them what they are worth nearly always it’s not more than £3-50 an hour lol.
