How much to pay a helper for a trial run?
As part of the process of finding a new helper, I'd like to have them come to my flat to do a trial run for a few hours 4-7 hrs max. They would do some cooking, cleaning, laundry so I get a feel for how they approach things and their attitude. How much should I pay a helper for a trial run? Is there an appropriate hourly rate?

60-100 per hour are the approximate part time rates for helpers.

pay $50 per hour, in case you don't like her, then you don't feel guilty ;-)
