The one point that I think some companies rightfully struggle with is hiring juniors early on. I think in the very early stages of a company that is OK. I think a company waiting until they have good infrastructure in place and enough good people for a junior to learn properly and get the support they need is a responsible move. I have heard horror stories of companies take on juniors when they aren't ready and the juniors get destroyed because of it.
Thank you for taking the time to put this post together! All of these are really great ideas and definitely things I am going to think about going forward as I interview candidates!
