Would you hire a hard working person over a more knowledgeable person?

Person A: Hard working, always willing to learn. Doesn't have much knowledge, but works his butt off. Very dedicated to accomplishing the goal.

Person B: Knows 3 times (literally) more than person A, smarter and understands what's best. He's a thoughtful architect. But, he works half as much because he's lazy and doesn't care much.

Assuming you had to pick from one as the first hire, who would you pick?

    In Vietnam you can go for person A because there is no competition in the knowledge-economy. Vietnam economy does not compete in brain work, creativity and brand new solutions to new problems. We are still trying to overcome old-time problems. As we are not in a knowledge society, a hard working person can replicate old solutions and get top results. Just working harder and Vietnam roads will be finished, service in restaurant will be top level, client service will be completed quick, rooms will be clean, etc... just basic stuff will be done. You need work and dedication to details.

    In developed countries, you need to find the replacement of the ipad 2, to compete with a better hybrid car or a car battery that can go 120km/hr and last 4 hours. The finanical markets and fund managers need to find the next protection against depression and government bad debts, the next derivative or the new concept that will bring new clients to hotels... Hard work will take you nowhere, because you need a little of each brain to bundle a solution that will beat the latest 3D TV without glasses, the next movie that will replace Harry Potter. You need the brain.

    Hi Anna, let me complicate things a bit: Person B, it's difficult to be knowledgeable if you are lazy, especially for someone earning a degree in architecture! Knowledge doesn't come easy. You can be smart and lazy, but not knowledgeable and lazy! We do have 'smart arses' and I would also keep them at arm's length.

    Conversely, if someone work their butt off and are still not knowledgeable, something is wrong with the recipe!
    As a teacher for over 45 years, imagine I have come across all sorts of students and all sorts of combinations of skills, attitudes, behaviour, aptitude! And that includes in Vietnam ;)
    So yes, I would go along with you and opt for the hard working person, assuming that she is open to learning.

    @Thanh Thao Nguyen. I agree with you, with one little issue: would you really want someone lazy managing others and being a bad example for them? If I don't hard, how can I ask people working with me to put in effort?

    Nếu cho tôi được chọn, tôi sẽ chọn người A.
    Vì qua người A tôi thấy được tinh thần cầu tiến và ham học hỏi nên việc có được kiến thức và kinh nghiệm không khó. Bản chất người A chăm chỉ nên anh ta sẽ càng cố gắng nếu được nhìn nhận đúng đắn.
    Riêng người B, người ta vẫn có câu: "Giang sơn dễ đổi, bản tính khó dời" => Vậy làm sao thay đổi được nếu người đó vốn dĩ không biết chủ động thay đổi mình.
    Tóm lại, là nhà tuyển dụng thì khi đào tạo thì sẽ đào tạo được cái gọi là Knowledge còn cái Attitude thì phải do chính bản thân của người đó.
    Good luck!

    I always choose hard working person cause:
    - The harder she work, the smarter she can be (litterally:)
    - The harder she work, the luckier she is (and the luckier we are)
    NO good quality can compensate for hard working...

    Advertise this position again, to seek to receive new candidates who have both qualities: "hard work" and "knowledgeable". Both properties must be available so that it can be good enough to qualify for the appointment process ... :-)

    Quảng cáo vị trí này một lần nữa, tìm cách nhận được các ứng cử viên mới có cả hai phẩm chất: "công việc khó khăn" và "hiểu biết".Cả hai thuộc tính phải có sẵn để nó có thể là tốt, đủ để hội đủ điều kiện cho quá trình bổ nhiệm ... :-)
