Hiring decisions One decision the manager of the personnel department frequently needs to make is to choose between and inexperienced worker with lower pay or a skilled one with higher pay Seen from the side of the company, it is in fact a problem of investment and output And to make the maximum profits, the manager should consider it on a case-by-case situation As we all know, the constitution of modern corporation is complex and the labor division is so specialized that no rigid conclusion can be made So far as assembly line workers are concerned, I believe employing inexperienced workers is highly sensible Low investment is, of course, a major concern of the employer and the workers inferior in education and experience ask far less than better-qualified ones And this default can be easily made up by some compact on the job trainings that can quickly fit the workers into their niche Since this kind of skills take almost no time to master, their shortcomings will not put sand in the wheels of business development However, for management positions, I prefer to hire people with rich experience despite their higher salary expectation For one thing, the performance of these people is firmly connected with the prosperity of the business and one decision of them can make a life or death difference A careless decision made by an unqualified manager can lead to a catastrophe causing a loss that dwarfs the amount of money saved in his or her salary Accordingly, money spent on hiring a shrewd manager can be compared to investments on some kind of blue stock which always makes sense For another thing, to qualify for such position, one has to get fine education and usually a MBA degree, which cost a skyrocketing price It is comparatively economical to hire those experienced ones than to try to train them by the company itself All in all, whether to hire an inexperienced worker or an experienced one is a relative issue and no arbitrary conclusion can be made Jobs with different requirement ought to be considered respectively to serve the best interest of the company
