3 Tips for Hiring Commercial Cleaners

Finding and hiring cleaning staff doesn’t have to be challenging. The following tips will help you throughout the recruitment process.

Be Transparent From the Start

Clearly state whether the position is expected to be full-time or part-time in the job description and what the expected wage per hour is. Also, list all of the job duties that candidates will be expected to complete. In addition, let candidates know where they will be working (retail stores, restaurants, medical facilities, offices, hotel rooms, etc.) and what they’ll be cleaning (hard surfaces, soft surfaces, windows, machinery, equipment, floors, etc.). The more information the candidate knows about the job, the better. 

Screen Candidates Thoroughly

The screening process is the time to ask the right questions. Here are some great questions to ask job seekers during the hiring process: 

1. Do you have cleaning experience? While anyone can learn how to clean, an experienced candidate will require less effort during the onboarding process.
2. What do you know about cleaning supplies and their functions? Asking this will allow you to gauge their ability to perform routine cleaning procedures.
3.  Can you clean on nights and weekends? Depending on the client’s needs, cleaning may need to be done outside of regular business hours. 

Get a Feel of the Candidate’s Attitude

Someone who’s genuinely interested in cleaning, or building a career in the cleaning industry, will do great work for your customers. If the candidate seems unenthused, they may not be a good addition to your company.
