An interesting point of view on recruiting:
"It’s essential for employers to begin asking questions such as, “Is this skill truly a must-have on day one?” or “Could I hire a more junior person for $10,000 less in salary and put a portion of that $10,000 savings towards top-notch training?”"

From my experience of working with many companies who have succeeded in recruiting - they did follow this strategy. Not only they could find the best talent and then train for the specifics of a job, but they also had a much bigger pool of candidates because those candidates knew about the training opportunities that usually lead to personal growth.
