Nothing will kill a startup faster than entry level software developers.

Building a tech business is hard.

You have limited cash and time to build a product and get it to market.

Counting on entry level people to build the product is usually a formula for failure.

You will end up with endless delays and there is a good chance that it may have to be rewritten later.

When you don't have a big budget or don't know much about technology, it's easy to go with the cheapest option.

When you are betting your life savings on this company working, the cheapest option and entry level developers are not a good bet.

You need a good senior level developer to lead the development and do things the right way and faster.

You need someone you can trust, not someone who you hope will give their best college try.

Hiring only entry level or junior developers is a significant mistake for so many startups.

Make sure you have at least one senior software developer on your team.

Entry level people just don't know what they don't know.
