This is a conversation I've had many times over the years. I've come to the conclusion that other than as a very cursory skills check, interviews are best performed simply as a test to see how well you get along with a person. The first few weeks will tell you if they're going to work out or not, and if not, it's better for all involved to move on quickly. They will either perform their duties as an adult, which includes working without constant oversight, or they won't. And if they can't do so, out they go before the probationary period is over, because you can't train someone to care.
