Try to pick staff who will enjoy the work, not just bodies to fill the jobs. Find people get some genuine satisfaction out of the work, as much as possible if it's not their dream job. Realize that people have different motivations, but that doesn't make one necessarily less sincere or worthwhile.
And if you somehow pick up someone without choosing, have an honest chat about them and what they want or like to do. Make the best possible effort to set them up for success. Define success. Keep an eye on them and show them support, but give them room to grow. Don't overreach, and don't underreach. Find the balance that suits your relationship from both sides.
