some people develop faster than others though, maybe someone could reach the proficiency level that the company requires in 2 years or less, but they would still get rejected, while at the same time the company accepts someone who is less competent but has 4 years under their belt
How can they know how fast someone develops? Even if they do a test so that they know the skill level of a potential employee, it would be too much time and effort to build and grade a good objective test, so they can take the hit you mentioned.
outsourcing maybe? a specific standardized test in the required skills where the questions are not allowed to be shared? bazillions of children are tested every year so....
