While a lot of the times getting your foot in the door is low paying internships, a lot of teams (at least from what I've seen in basketball and baseball) will hire people who have demonstrated skills for full time positions without the front office work. At least at the analyst level, it's much harder to get in via the scouting/coaching route without any experience I imagine. All the other non-operations front office stuff (sales, marketing, etc.) non-sports experience in the field is plenty in most cases from what I've seen.
