Hire talent, not five years with Java
If there's no slack for training time, there's no slack for an empty position, which is what we have now.

Very succinct. If a company can afford to let a position go empty for six months because they "need someone who can hit the ground running," then they don't really need someone who can hit the ground running.

Maybe the difference is not needing to pay someone for those six months when he might just be training still?
