Do you hire people without any relevant experience?

Ask yourself this, if you were an employer, under what circumstances would you hire someone without any relevant experience? What would make you hire that person as opposed to someone that does have relevant experience?

The answer might be what you're looking for.

May be a bit off-topic, but does one have to use Visual Studio to work at your place :p ?

Depends on what you are aiming to work as. Programmers uses Visual Studio and most of us scripters have Visual Studio installed, to make it easier to debug crashes and script bugs for both us and the programmers. The artists don't have Visual Studio installed, they usually don't need it.

We use QTCreate for Linux and for our code you need Visual Studio for Windows. So that's a yes, if you wish to work as a programmer for PDS.
 
Yes. When developing on windows.
And what about version control system and issue tracking system? What do you use in PDS?

SVN, although hopefully we'll switch to git eventually when we have the time, svn is pretty shoddy. For bug tracking etc we have a system integrated into the forum (being phased out) as well as Jira.

A proper Bugzilla, pretty please. :)
 
The police took our serfs away :C

Then why don't you just hire some serfs from abroad? Here in America workers don't have any rights so just avoid letting us get Swedish citizenship and you can party like it's 999.

But seriously, how often do you guys hire junior programmers?

Swedish labour law and labour contracts apply for foreign citizens working in Sweden as well.
