Tips for hiring

• • Verify integrity of a person you like to hire. Keep on testing integrity over time

  • Prefer the person who is not broker. It means that person does work himself. Such person understands the complexity. Broker doesn't inspect the work quality and many times, he wants worker to finish work faster than the right speed.

  • Don't do unconditional trust. Trust supported by document is important. Hires commit lot many to get the tender initially and later they don't honour.

  • Be ready to prepare for end of work. At the end, hire will not come and try to escape by getting money. They give emotional reasons for getting money beforehand

  • Be firm on the committed items. Be honest.

  • Keep on recording the talks. It will help to provide fact about commitment in case hire lies

  • Hire by reference is good, but not fullproof

  • After work done by hire, always verify

  • Never pay more then the work done to any hire. It is good to maintain payment schedule in the agreement document. Labor payment is better until work is finished. Remaining should be paid after that.

  • Keep gap of some duration before full payment after work is completed.
