Experienced or inexperienced staff?

[Blue_Cardinal]

Do you prefer to train your new staff members or would you rather have a staff member have some kind of experience in what you're hiring them for? Does experience for you matter?

Either way is fine for me. Someone trained me so why not repay the favour and help someone else.

Depends on the forum and the amount of members that are on the forum. I mean, if I own a forum with more than 100 people online, or close to it, I'm not going to hire some random person with 0 knowledge of how to moderate and train them. Not only would I not have the time but I could not train them and own the forum at the same time.

Though, as a personal preference, I usually like to hire people who know what they're doing. I normally do not like to train period so.
