[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of these problems would be avoided by putting more detailed information in the ad, for example how much are you paying? $10-15 doesn't tell me much. I've gotten to interviews and find out they're only paying $10, and my starting rate is $14. Are you planning to withold taxes? Are you offering paid time off? Tell me about your parenting style. If you require a car, tell me why. What are you looking for in a nanny? What traits do you hope she'll have? Exactly how many hours are you offering? Are you open to a share if you're offering the low end of market rate? So many of the ads just have a few form lines clicked (must love children! [Really?!] Looking to start in weeks! (WHEN exactly?) and are missing the information needed to make a good decision about whether I want to apply. Those are the ads that get form letter applications. I generally give a thoughtful application, but so many of them don't get a response that i do a lot of copy and pasting but will change details to suit the specific ad. [/quote] If you can work for $14 I'm sure you can work for $10. Get over yourself.[/quote]
