Kapor Capital’s Post

A director of client services at a huge company knew he’d make it to VP in a few years. But he was done drifting. He knew he could do the job TODAY. So we repositioned his story and connected him with some key people. The outcome: → He landed a job as the COO of a series A startup → In a brand-new industry → For a company that wasn’t even looking to hire a COO He worked HARD to make this happen. It wasn’t magic. But once people decide to stop drifting and take control of their journey… Man. What a beautiful thing to see! #careers #careerdevelopment #jobsearch #hiring #careercoach

Finding the right team to grow a business is the founder’s hardest job… The first few years it’s all about the co-founders and initial team members. 🤔 What makes them the right people to jump aboard ?! They’re… 👉🏼 Risk takers tipping towards delusional. 👉🏼 Ready to roll their sleeves, at any time. 👉🏼 Pushing for the company’s growth first. 👉🏼 Constantly looking for opportunities. 👉🏼 Willing to do the dirty work to grow. 👉🏼 Not looking for a cash grab. 👉🏼 Not counting tasks like a chore. They trust every team member to do their jobs, and believe in each other. It’s always on the hush hush when you’ve filtered through the wrong people to join your team! Can’t have the team changes be a blocker for the startup’s growth. “Is it the right team this time?!” — the voice in my head keeps asking.. #founder #candid #behindthescenes #founderjourney

Hiring the right people isn't just about filling positions—it's about shaping the very essence of your startup. Each new addition to the team has the power to either enrich or dilute the culture you're striving to cultivate. Need some extra hands finding aligned talent? Reach out to me - Moonhub 🚀can help!

It was cool to see Owner recognized in Forbes’ Next Billion Dollar Startup list but, to be honest, I didn’t feel nearly the excitement that I would have expected. 🤔 I think that’s because I’ve been operating on the assumption that becoming a unicorn is a near term eventuality. ⛰️ We/I have our sights set much higher than that. ⛰️ The market is massive. The product has more traction than anyone in restaurant tech. The talent density is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. (If Forbes only knew how we’ve transformed the business in 2024. 😲) We are trying to level the playing field for hundreds of thousands of independent restaurant owners. We have all the ingredients, and more importantly the ambition, to become a decacorn in the next few years. And our mission doesn’t stop there. I also think my enthusiasm was muted because I worry that these accolades will attract the wrong type of person. Someone who’s looking for the next shiny object. What got us here are mission driven people with crazy ambition, teamwork, grit, resilience, work ethic and a growth mindset. I never want to lose that DNA. This recognition was made possible by the sacrifices of our team. There are real sacrifices to be a part of a mission like this. In order to be successful over the next decade, we need to attract people with that same wiring. Shiny object seekers beware. Nonetheless, I’m excited for the recognition because our team deserves it and I’m eternally grateful for the team members that got us to this point. Appreciate you all. 🤝 Onwards and upwards. 🐍 Job’s not finished. 🐍 P.S. If this is a journey you want to be a part of, I’m hiring for the following roles: - Marketing Operations Manager - Growth Marketing Manager - Account Executive - Sales/Business Development Representative - Sales Manager - XDR Director (posting soon)

We think a lot about the type of job we want to do, but not enough about the type of company we want to work with... At Flexa we're making that possible. Do you find risks uncomfortable? 🧠 Try a larger company with a really clear progression scheme from graduate > senior leader. Are you in a phase of life where you want to grow and learn as fast as possible? 🌱 A fast-paced, high-energy startup could be for you. Is it important that the work you do matches your values? 🦅 Mission driven companies are the place for you. Do you want to be around diverse ideas and perspectives? 🏢 Look for a company which prioritises DEI and equal representation. #peopleandculture #hiring
