take on somebody or take up somebody?
Hi,
If I want to mean that someone is helping out others and offering them jobs, do I say that they take on somebody or take up somebody? Is that clear enough? basically, someone wants to train someone or give somebody a chance of doing something? If you could give me an example, that would be great.
Thanks,
