When Experience is a Liability

Published 4 years, 10 months ago
Description

Don’t hire someone with experience! At least that is what I hear quite often. The idea being that you won’t have to untrained old habits. I many people’s mind experienced employees are more of a pain than they are willing to deal with. 

But where does this assumption come from? Is this a fair rule to have for hiring? I honest don’t think so. The truth is that experience is only a liability in the hands of certain people. 

On today’s Shift Break we will be exploring just how experience can turn into a liability and how to approach baristas with experience in a fair way.
