If I were an assignor, I would probably assign a newer person along with an experienced person.
That accomplishes two things.

1) You have back-up for the less experienced guy.
2) you get an evaluation of the les experienced guy.

That's what seems to be done around here...

I think that's what most responsible assignors do, and my assignor is one of them. I consider myself very fortunate to have him at the helm.
