Many of these candidates will probably have some knowledge of training people in their work situation.

I sort of agree.
You're just as likely to find a good, or bad teacher for that matter, as a result of recruiting this way because the recession.
At least these people will be able to pass on something of what it's actually like in the real big bad world, rather than some dopey kid whose done a years post-grad teaching course, after doing a degree in me-dya studies at the University of Bognor.
Good teachers are so important. They can either scar you, or impart a love of a subject for life.
Wherever they recruit them from, I just hope they manage to find the ones who are going to be good at it, rather than attracting those who may see it as just a stop gap job until they can return to a more cushy job in Civvy Street, once things begin to pick up in the City.
My only hope is that no directors of any newly part privatised banks are given jobs this way. Most of whom seem to have lacked even the most basic academic qualifications you'd need to be a bank teller, never mind run one...into the ground.
