Hello,
I am starting the process of hiring my first FDH. I will be setting up interviews from ads I have found on asiaxpat and geoxpat.
As I am sure there are many who are old hands at this process, can you write up a step by step how to guide for us newbies? I am sure there are many who will appreciate this!
What paperwork do I need ready? I hear you need to be ready to hire the good ones on the spot!
Is the process different if a contract is broken or completed?
Thanks!

Well, there's a book that just came out which will guide you through the process: http://www.havenbooksonline.com/books/catalogue/hiring-and-managing-domestic-help . You can find it at Dymocks Repulse Bay, Dymocks IFC and other places.
"What paperwork do I need ready?"
For interviewing, not much, but you do need a HKID to hire.
"I hear you need to be ready to hire the good ones on the spot!"
True.
"Is the process different if a contract is broken or completed?"
Only in some details regarding processing in HK or if she needs to go "back home". Just make sure the contract actually is broken.

Make sure you buy some domestic helper insurance as it covers the maid and also you as it's legally required by the Employees' Compensation Ordinance. There's different levels of benefits you can buy but generally they're not expensive.

Indeed. Also make sure the insurance includes medical since as an employer you are responsible.
