One aspect that no one has mentioned but I've experienced with interns is that some juniors don't want to learn. Some think college taught them everything they'll need, others just have no idea how to learn on their own without hand holding after 14+ years in the education factory. I'm a big believer in education and training people I like teaching and I'll put in a lot of my own time to come up with projects within their skill level and tutor them through various things like debugging, but when that's not reciprocated by them having a desire/ability to learn you really feel burnt out. I'd be much more willing to put time into people that are self taught, but HR will only give me college graduates.
