[quote=Anonymous]Just clear up the work hours and responsibilities in your interview process. “Our family will need AP to participate in early morning activities due to our kids sports schedule. We will need you to drive our daughter at 4:30am.....etc. You will then be free from 8am - x time.” I think the only issue would be if you weren’t transparent about this up front. Also, many non-Americans will be unfamiliar with the American youth approach to sports and these kinds of hours. It definitely isn’t mainstream outside of the USA. Perhaps for Olympic bound athletes? My friend did the 4:30 swim gig for years with 3 kids and none of them ended up even swimming in college. Anyway, you may just need to explain the sports culture. My son plays travel soccer and we have had to explain the nutty schedule to all of our APs.[/quote]
