Application question(s):
- You arrive at the property at 10am to clean, but the guests haven’t checked out yet. You have other commitments later today and can’t wait around. How would you handle this?
- While cleaning, you notice the guest has left an unusually large mess — including a stain on the carpet and spilled milk in the fridge. You've already spent an hour and a half cleaning and haven’t been able to complete all your usual tasks. What would you do?
- You were scheduled to clean the property today, but you're unwell and it’s now 3pm — guests are due to check in soon, and the property hasn’t been cleaned yet. What would you do in this situation?
Licence/Certification:
- Driving Licence (preferred)
