@Joyfano...and not professional.
It has been often questioned when getting new employees: Should the hiring manager,
- Get the one with the best technical skills?
- Get the one with the best temperament?
"Skills" looks attractive, but "temperament" wins. There is a caveat in the person needs be willing and able to develop their own skills within and outside the company & within and outside the job description.
After all, that issues of all types arise is expected, what is important is how they are handled. Even in "bad situations", not resolving can be (somewhat) okay if the inability or delay in resolving is communicated expeditiously and effectively.
Better fortune with the next person!

Yes not professional.
The next person i am planning to hire our "Intern last 2012" -
I've heard it called Values, Attributes and Skills. Skills are easy to teach and matter, but very little. They matter a lot in short term consultants, not in employees you hope to keep. Even if they have the skills that you want they will soon be outdated.
Attributes or Aptitude (similar ways to look at the "A") are not easy to change but can be changed with effort over time. Finding someone with the "A"s that you need is important or at least getting someone who is close. Anyone with the right "A" will be able to acquire the skills necessary quite easily and will be able to keep doing so as the needed skills change over time.
But the most important aspect is Values and these, effectively, cannot change. Finding someone whose values match those of your organization is of the utmost importance. Without these you will have fundamental conflicts and incompatibilities that will make the relationship untenable.
