If you are dealing with "Home Cook" specifically, start with whichever post above matches your city or role closest, then reach out on WhatsApp if you want us to walk through your situation directly rather than relying on general guidance.
Every guide on this blog, regardless of tag, is written against the same underlying process: candidates go through Staffly's 40-point verification, CNIC checked against NADRA records, a Police Character Certificate from their own local police station, and previous employers called directly rather than a reference letter taken at face value. Every placement also carries the same 6-month free replacement guarantee, and the staff member is always employed directly by your household, salary paid straight to them with no ongoing commission on top of the one-time placement fee. That is true whether you found this page through a city guide, a role guide, or a tag like "Home Cook".
