It means that they have a disadvantage as soon as they start working.
This is differenent from a disadvantage that might show itself slowly over time.
If a person started work without the ability to spell, it would show up in their work on the first day.
If a person was not good at tecnical expertise, this might take somewhat longer for his/her boss to notice.
