Event Pros - Don't Make This Hiring Mistake

The biggest hiring mistake event pros make is hiring someone just because they've done the job before. Here's the move. Hire for character. Train for skill. Reliable, punctual, communicates without being chased, can lift gear, actually available on Saturdays. Those are things you can't teach in a training shift. Setting up a photo booth, running cocktails, working a mic, all of that can be trained in a few weekends. Showing up on time is not a skill. It's a personality. Someone with great character and zero experience will outwork a flaky pro every single weekend. Comment staff for the full playbook on how to hire staff.
