nonexperienced
Lacking any background
Nonexperienced means lacking experience in a particular area or activity.
The term is a somewhat awkward alternative to inexperienced, typically appearing in formal or bureaucratic contexts: nonexperienced applicants, nonexperienced users.
In most writing, inexperienced is the more natural choice.
