Artist Resource: Intern or Employee?
When growing your business calls for recruiting help, you'll want to find the right person. The search is an important process. Begin by asking yourself what you need and what you expect. Make a list, considering:
- how will that person assist you in achieving your business goals?
- what kind of work will you give them?
- how many hours per week will you need them?
- who will train, supervise, or mentor that person?
- where will they work and what equipment will they use?
Then, rough out a job description. Include details about their tasks and responsibilities.
If you have a lot to teach someone - and time to guide them - an internship could be the way to go. If you need them to be more independent, an employee would be the better choice. Simply put: an intern is a person you train and the experience is intended to benefit that person. An employee is someone you hire with the understanding that they are already qualified for the position.
