I think there is too much analysis in the article because you'll never find the perfect person willing to work for little to no pay. Just only hire people smarter/better/more experience than you. When you're a 100 person company and you find that your the dumbest one in the entire building, congratulations. You have a killer team.

The point of my article is not to hire the "perfect" person - to the contrary. People will advise you to hire the "perfect" person based on what they did in the past. The point of my article was to say hire the person who hasn't done this level before but is high potential. In every group hiring discussion I've ever been in people argue for the most senior person. I always argue against it.
