I will be running a branch office for a firm in Chicago, and I was wondering becasue I am 21, will it be harder to hirer people because of my age and their willingness to work for some younger. I will need to hire people like accountants, receptionist, admins... and such, and most of the people i hire will be older than me, i guess my question is, will be discouraged to work for me because of my age.

Hello Dave,

No I don't think folks will have a problem working for you or applying for a job from you. If you show yourself to be a responsiable and professional employer/manager there shouldn't be a problem.

Dave,
Honest Answer to your question.

Good news : Your problem is not your age

Bad News : Your problem is the availability of professionals who are not employed elsewhere.

There has been a large influx of accounting/business management type firms into the V.I. recently. These firms have gobbled up most of the good folks.

Is your company looking for EDC benefits? If so, I have a contact that can give you deep insite into staffing and the pertinent stuff.
Copy your reply to [email protected] (my company)

This is the other Dave on this board. I'm 25 and I don't mind working for someone younger than me. Fact, if you need an adminstrative computer wizard. Let me know.

Which Island are you at? I'm looking to move to St. Thomas

Thanks Dave H (The other Dave)
