I have been discussing with colleagues the merits of hiring others from the previous industry experience vs those without industry experience?
I am confident that all managers would agree that the "Best Fit" is most important, however do you think it is better to:
1. Groom an employee with the right tools the way you want them to be trained? Yet, run the risk of a longer training curve? Lack of long term commitment to the adult industry etc.
2. Hire an industry experienced person and run the risk of higher salary expectations, poor reputations, "burning bridges" with possible trading partners, additional fees for moving expenses etc.
What do you all think?

When people are hired from one adult company to another, I have seen what appears to be a higher rate of turnover. I can think of a LOT of names but I will refrain from posting them here.
I may be wrong but I personally suggest hiring a fresh face, training them, and so forth. I have an "assistant" that I am grooming for this business and she travels to the shows with me, sits in on the discussions, and takes notes so she can learn.
