Millennials and their work demands

I just want to shake these idiots (millennials). Do they understand that the typical cost of a new hire (including productivity costs, training costs, HR costs, etc.) is $10K even for a low-level position?

Further, I am not interested in someone working for me who tells me in the interview they are probably going to be gone in 1-2 years. They obviously do not understand that the very leadership roles they seek require insights into the company, its people, its competitors, its systems, and its customers - and those take years to acquire - not days.

I don't care how much you know about technology. I don't care how connected you are with your peers. I want to know what you are going to bring in the long term to my business that is going to justify me hiring you.
