What do you consider hiring costs to be, if you're not including training costs?

You are on forum for software engineers. They are hardly cheap.

Their hourly rate isn't the issue. It's about the commitment to fulltime, which SEs often avoid via contracting.
Seriously, where is this "hiring is costly" sentiment coming from? Especially when it's for a job that other people are already doing.
Only for the smallest of businesses. Your commercial rent is costly, your insurance is costly, your materials are costly. People are the least costly resource for any non union (most of world) work. Training is costly, in many cases, granted. Maybe that should be the focus, in the cases where it applies. Saying workers are costly across the board is incorrect.
