I have advertised for someone to help with the work & do some admin/IT.
I haven't had as many responses as I had expected & I am a bit undecided as to what to do.
Applicant A: can do the job, will fit in, but I get the impression she won't train & would find the admin/IT stuff tricky
Applicant B: has a temp job which might continue but she won't know until September - but she could do the job, the training, the admin/IT & would fit in
Applicant C: could do the job, might be able to do the admin/IT (there might be a language issue - I might not be a good enough trainer to allow for English being her second (or possibly 3rd or 4th) language), might fit in but can't do the hours I need
I am starting to feel like re-advertising but I am wondering about combining A & C on the basis that maybe my wish list is unrealistic
Should I hold out for the 'perfect' applicant or accept they might not want to work for me exist
