And you thought, "what a great opportunity to hire someone who has some fundamentals and a lot of potential for growth!", and hired the one that seemed most promising?

If I'm reading between the lines of your comment correctly, I don't think that's what you mean, I think you mean that this was a problematic experience. If that's right, I don't really understand that reaction: this is a nascent field, the ready-made experienced work-force is expected to be much smaller than the demand, with most positions filled by new entrants gaining experience rather than folks who already have it. This is the fundamental challenge and simultaneously the great opportunity of running a business in a nascent field!
