We always try to show students how to gain experience. The article will discuss the benefits of hiring young and uneducated students. They have the potential and desire – one of the main criteria for employers.

Founder and CEO of the company Domo Josh James and co-founder of Omniture formed “Rule 45 ”When selling the first company:

“ Rule 45: Refuse inexperienced students. There is no turning back. People who work now and do not want to change jobs… PERFECT. ”
With all due respect to Josh’s achievements, author David Williams disagrees.

Company Fishbowl achieved record growth ( currently more than 70% over the last three turbulent years), regional and national awards for product quality and management, with the opposite view described by Josh James. Read its details.

Consider the iron argument for hiring inexperienced youth. Not every company, especially in the early stages, can afford to hire a “ superstar “ – a highly qualified professional. Most companies, especially in the development stage, are willing to take newcomers to grow with them.

This hypothesis requires the right approach. There are 7 main features for candidates that are not discussed:

• respect;
• trust;
• loyalty;
• responsibility;
• faith;
• courage;
• Thanks.

You should look for employees who have these qualities. From the first words, it is obvious that they are in the work. Immediately check whether they clearly formulate thoughts, know how to listen, whether they can express what they really feel. Are they nervous and able to show strong character traits when asked who they see themselves as in a few years? There is a t ore ethic personality. They are usually looking for someone who is “thirsty” for learning. This is a significant factor that determines your readiness for office life. In 30 minutes, employers can determine if they need such an employee with an accuracy of 99%.

Recent hiring statistics show us interesting things: when you want to try yourself in a new field and do not have the experience, start from the bottom. Agree on the lowest salary to be able to see if it’s really yours. Approve the challenges. Learn more about the internal atmosphere of the company and bring something new. Don’t be afraid to ask primitive things like “Why do this?” You have a desire, so you will quickly gain professional skills.

Student benefits for working start:

Rapid career growth. You are not yet overwhelmed by the 8-hour routine and ready to start a new business. You catch everything on the fly and are interested in many processes. Your enthusiasm has a good effect on the work of the team as a whole.

Ability to listen. You listen to older employees and learn the basics of the profession better and better.

A new vision of old problems. You perceive everything differently. Naivety is the gold that you bring to the company and dilute the gray working days of others.

Reliability. Some employees are young, some are older. Nevertheless, when a company is a place of prosperity for you, you will always adore the product you are working on.

Many companies claim that it is not profitable to hire students because of the tangibility of the experience. The idea is wrong. it all depends on the person.

Can this approach work for you? At least when choosing the next job. We know for sure that all companies have a lot of star employees. Find a mentor from whom you will learn the intricacies of work, you will gain experience to “shine”. Work on yourself!
