On one hand, you want to help a friend who is looking for a job. You already know them, their strengths and their weaknesses, so you can judge better whether they are a good fit. You already have trust and you know you can depend on them. On the other hand, being a friend and being a colleague can be very different. There may be aspects of your friend you have not seen yet. Are you ready to lose a friend if the arrangement doesn't work out? Can you be the stern boss when you need to be? How will their presence in the organisation affect your other staff?
Would you employ a personal friend?
