I'm going to assert without evidence that no one in this industry is thinking 3 years out, much less 10. Heck, the chance someone you hire today is going to be working for your company in 10 years approximates 0.

Why ever hire people with no experience then?

1. You need somebody.

2. They're cheap.

3. They went to the same school/non-school/frat/boot camp you did.

4. They look like they'll be fun to hang out with.

5. You also have no experience.
