Benefits of Hiring Interns over Experienced Pro


Hiring inexperienced people don’t always invite trouble, but on the contrary, it is always beneficial to the company. While hiring an experienced professional seems to be an attractive approach, hiring interns straight after they graduate can prove to be highly beneficial for the company. Some of the reasons for the same are given below.

  1. No Company Politics

One of the biggest problems with experienced professionals in a company is the deep routed internal politics. This inner politics can be a barrier keeping the growth as a hostage. Politics is always inevitable and annoying when you work with full-time professionals, while if you work with interns this won’t be the case. Interns have not been a part of the company for a long-term plus they don’t have the stature to do politics in a company. This ensures smooth working in the company.

  1. Innovation and Taking Risks

It is a well- known fact that the minds of young people more innovatively and faster than older people. In today’s world of innovation and idea based business plans, an experienced professional will always vouch for the safest path in front while an intern will always be willing to take risks if the idea is strong enough. Young Interns don’t mind taking a risk if the result that is aimed is worth it, while professionals are always skeptical about the approach.

  1. Aptitude for the latest Tech

Technology plays a very important role in businesses of the modern world. Without the latest technologies at their disposal, no company can think of making it big. When it comes to technological aptitude, no one can beat the freshly graduated college people. It’s not like that experienced office guys can’t learn to use technology, it’s more about learning and implementation of technology in more innovative ways with a limited number of resources.

  1. More active in Working

It is a no-brainer that interns have a higher work rate which is manifolds higher than those of experienced full-time employees. Interns are mostly fresh graduates or current college students and they are much younger than established professionals, this age factor alone can define the work rate of both types of employees. Besides this, even if you wish to omit the mistakes done by interns the work rate would still come out to be much more because they are always more than ready to do correction instantly.

  1. Monetarily more beneficial

While interns are college students or graduates who have a desire to learn things, experienced professionals are aged and established people with a family to take care of. These professionals due to their experience take salaries manifolds higher than interns while interns have a much higher work rate than these professionals. Calculating all the cost aspects of both the cases you’ll find that hiring interns is much more cost-effective than hiring professionals.

Interns are a fresh workforce while professionals are already established ones, these interns are naturally more reluctant to learn and grow as compared to the latter. It should be noted that it might sound like a good idea to hire interns rather than hiring professionals, but this in no way advocates for the exploitation of the inexperienced lot for your own personal benefits. Doing so will only create non-ideal circumstances for future professionals.
