One subsequently bringing in person without skill (8)

I believe the answer is:

inexpert

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'without skill' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'one subsequently bringing in person' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'I' (Roman numeral).
'subsequently' becomes 'next' (I've seen this in another clue).
'bringing in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'person' becomes 'per' (I've seen this in other clues).
'next' going around 'per' is 'nexpert'.
'i'+'nexpert'='INEXPERT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for inexpert that I've seen before include "Not skilled or well-versed" , "non-professional" , "Green" , "unprofessional" , "Lacking skill or knowledge" .)
