I had an idea for a similar post but obviously if HBR had it published first, I forward it here.
My idea was more general: hiring an inexperienced is more risky, maybe, but it's a high leverage return risk as inexperienced people tend to work harder to prove they can do it. Once they achieve the waited level of performance, they keep the momentum of hard work and tend to go further than a highly experienced person who developed low amount of effort to be at the expected performance.
