EIDU’s Post

It's official! 🚨 We've successfully recruited 3 new key team members to Fygë in the last 2 months. 🎉 - CTO - Head of Kitchen - CS & Sales Rep. Since this is a significant step in our business, and to talk more about the experience of building a cross-industry venture while feeding Helsinki's best offices, here are some takeaways I learned from this hectic recruitment round: - Gut feeling still plays a huge role when talking to candidates. You've to choose for cultural fit, otherwise, you could break things easily at an early-stage startup. - Choosing the right platform to post job openings is crucial. You save a ton of time and energy by only receiving relevant applications. Still, 70% of applicants are going to be rejected in the first round. - A properly named pdf CV with ONLY relevant information is underrated. 🫣 - Being on the recruiting side of the table requires at least the same amount of energy as being a candidate. All positions are different and you are looking for a diamond in the rough. Have at least 7 hours of sleep constantly. - It is crucial to sell the position to the right candidate, rather than simply evaluate their qualifications. - Candidates asking relevant questions or defending their point of view appeal to be much more interesting. We are looking for people with authority and responsibilities. Long story short, I am super happy that we could fill all the positions in such a short time. I was preparing for at least a 6 months recruitment period, which obviously couldn't happen. We're closing the books at the end of March and kicking off the new fiscal year with all the new members (and an exclusive officewarming party🤫). Excited for the next chapter! #recruitment #startup #fyge #catering #foodtech

When your team goes home, what do they say to their spouse, parents, or friends? Do they feel like they found a place in the cosmos where they can dedicate five years of great work and grow personally at the same time? You've probably heard the saying "Culture eats strategy for breakfast." That's never been truer than it is in the technology landscape today. Yes, you need a compelling strategy and vision to attract Grade A talent, but bringing out the best in that talent and keeping that talent engaged is about creating a culture sweet spot. In my experience, excellence and innovation meet at the intersection of hard work, high expectations, and a greater sense of purpose. I’m not talking about burnout excellence. I’m talking about excellence for the long run—sustainable excellence. I’m talking about offering an environment where people feel like they’re a part of something special. From a leadership perspective, that means making people feel heard, trusted, and valued. People also need to feel challenged and a part of something bigger than themselves. Our careers are too long to worry or obsess about when the next raise or promotion is coming. And they are too short to spend time on work that doesn't make us feel alive. We’re building a culture based on these very values in our Reno headquarters and our new Walnut Creek, CA technology innovation center. If what I said resonates with you, and you're looking for a rewarding career, we're hiring. https://hubs.li/Q02tCxQM0

“To be tested is good. The challenged life may be the best therapist.”– Gail Sheehy   I’ve held digital marketing, content, product, creative, experiential and business development leadership roles across my career at Dell Technologies, Microsoft, Ogilvy & Mather and have helped grow clients from Spotify, Netflix, Coca-Cola, American Express, IBM, UPS and others.    I am seeking my next opportunity for growth.   Where I can help you:   ·        As a senior leader that can drive impact. I can create change at legacy companies OR lead a mid-sized company into future ready territory. I utilize people skills and technology to drive valuable outcomes. ·        Educating on why marketing is a valuable investment for your brand, product or solution. I speak the language of finance, IT, sales and product. I understand popular culture and sentiment. I educate the C-Suite on how all these components work together. ·        I foster creative and critical thinking environments, where the questions asked are as important as the answers given. ·        Lead in a player/coach role. I mentor and develop people while being immersed in day-to-day transformational workflows.    I thrive in bringing clarity to areas with ambiguity and turbulence, learning and listening as I go. I am team-first and all about relationships. The technology used to get the work done helps those elements prosper and isn’t a replacement for human IQ/EQ – it’s a partnership.   Message or comment if you:   ·        Have any openings you know of. ·        Have short term contract work or projects. I’m happy to review any opportunities. ·        Have bigger creative projects but don’t want to hire an agency. I have a team assembled that can help with anything from UX design, research, video or audio production, visual design, social-by-design creative strategy, production, and execution. ·        Don’t have a senior role in mind for me but have a role to share? Share it, I can refer many people recently laid off who have amazing skillsets. ·        Want to set up a virtual or in person coffee/tea. I love learning from others by being social. ·        Have speaking opportunities. I was just asked to talk at TEDx in Singapore for Procter and Gamble in September. My talks push boundaries.   BTW, want to know who I am and how I solve problems? Read the recent Marketers That Matter interview.

In recent years, I worked under NDA for fin-tech and ed-tech companies, built and sold my villa in Bali, learned to drive with left-hand traffic, and engaged in various interesting activities. This year, I want to continue my consulting activities but in a more open format. Through 15 years of working in Russian and international markets, I have accumulated extensive experience in project management, production, hiring, team development, enhancing HR branding, and much more. Can do this on my own and/or by collecting top specialists from the advertising industry, production, O2O/tech startups, and other corporations. Specifically, some of the recent cases for my clients include: — Optimizing business processes during periods of rapid company growth, budget crises, or opening offices in new countries. — Complete HR flow: interviewing current employees, my thoughts on downsizing and hiring, assistance in finding valuable loyal employees, and tuning a skills matrix. — Processes improvement in specific areas of a business facing challenges (reducing entropy, resolving conflicts between departments, etc). I am interested in helping: 1) Corporations and medium-sized businesses: in a retainer format with a deep immersion in processes and full engagement in the life and culture of the company. 2) Advertising agencies, production companies, and small businesses: in the form of one-time consultations aiming at specific problems. 3) Those currently job hunting and experiencing a crisis of self-identity. This year, I hope to share a lot about my work, and you would greatly help me by sharing my posts and telling your acquaintances about me. Wish y'all peace and kindness 🤜🏼🤛🏼
