I would put a twist to that: I have seen, young, inexperienced guys get hired, its not the experience,
its the attitude.
if you are reliable, "by the book" type of guy, you know your procedures perfectly, never miss a step.
if in addition, people know you as such, they will take a risk on you against your competition a sloppy pilot with possibly spotty experience.
it often goes unsaid: the benefit of starting very early, is that you will reach every milestone early, chief pilot at 30 instead of 45... means more money over your lifetime.
