How Do You Hire Staff For Your Websites? - Ravenfreak - 10-15-2023
I'm curious to see how everyone hires staff for their websites. We all have different approaches, so it'll be nice to get some insight from a few different webmasters. I usually wait a little bit before I hire staff, but I hire people I can trust. I had a bad experience once when I used to have a gaming forum hosted on Proboards. I made the mistake of hiring a random person, who ended up deleting the theme I had installed and she ended up installing themes that didn't even fit with the niche of the forum. Thankfully it didn't take too long to get the old theme back, I immediately banned her from the forum. Usually I'll have a form that members can fill out and send to me in a private message if they're interested in being staff.

I've been flying solo for years due to some trust issues and mainly just the fact that no one takes much interest in being a staff member of my forum. I would hand-pick people or set up applications for users to become staff and if they have great etiquette, are active/contributive, and seem to have experience with the type of forum I am running, then they very well may find a spot on the team.
