The problem describes a business organization with a total of 300 employees. Out of these, 15 employees were transferred from another job, and 27 employees have never worked before. The task is to determine the number of employees who have prior experience and were hired directly.

Identify the total number of employees and the counts for the specified categories.
Total employees = 300
Employees transferred from another job = 15
Employees who have never worked before = 27
Calculate the sum of employees in the two specified categories (transferred or new to work).
$\text{Employees (transferred or new)} = 15 + 27 = 42$
Determine the number of employees who have prior experience and were hired directly.
This is found by subtracting the sum of the two specified categories from the total number of employees.
$\text{Experienced, direct hire employees} = \text{Total employees} - \text{Employees (transferred or new)}$ $\text{Experienced, direct hire employees} = 300 - 42 = 258$
The number of employees who have prior experience and were hired directly is $\boxed{\text{258 employees}}$ .
