I had a couple before I finished at my old place. They're now mid twenties and both are excellent at their jobs.Ive got a couple starting at the end of the month. From management it’s entirely seen as cheap labour for low end tasks they don’t want to pay minimum wage for. They’ve been sold to us by a third party who will “do their training” (a couple of online courses). Genuinely embarrassed and will be trying my best to give them a proper experience. Especially as we aren’t talking about kids here. Ones got a Masters degree!
We gave them demanding tasks but I always took the bollocking when they fucked up (not healthcare before you ask), which is all part of learning.
It was nice watching those wet behind the ears 18 year olds blossom into fully functioning members of staff.
The grads always seemed to want everything handed to them on a plate.
Just my experience and purely anecdotal.
