That's something of a metagame answer, though, and this wasn't a metagame question. Realistically, you don't hire the noname adventurers to go clear a dungeon unless either (a) you have some reason to believe they're sufficiently competent to do so, (b) sending people to die is neither an ethical nor a political problem, or (c) you have no idea of the threat level.
