The Danger of Hiring Juniors
Geoffrey Roche, Applied Arts

My agency has a long history of hiring juniors because it has been proven over and over that they often produce the best work, regardless of their experience. And yet many more go unhired in our industry because people don't seem to see the wisdom in doing it, or because they fear the investment is too great.
