The biggest mistake startups make when hiring: not making it their #1 priority. As an early stage company, your team is everything. They’re the people that propel you forward, make or break your next round of funding, and help shape the vision of the org. Investing time and effort into the interview process might seem like a drag when you’re a lean team with endless responsibilities, but it’s SO crucial for success. If you’re serious about hiring, you've got to go all in. Half-hearted efforts only hold your team back and jeopardize future growth. #hiring #hiringtips #startuplife #techstartups
