We have an inverted hiring marketplace: Usually perceived safety (employment wise) is joining heavily funded privately held companies or public big tech companies But if you’ve been paying attention, the last 18 months the vast majority of investing has been in pre-seed/seed/seed extension (throw in an occasional A) stage companies. And many of those startups are focused on PMF and profitability. Those who have both are living life on their terms and, in my opinion, offer the least amount of risk in the current market. Growth funded by their own revenue and sweat equity. You know, like the settlers used to do it. Now, are they easy to find? No But they are there and in growing numbers

Have you heard of Organisational debt? It’s most common in startups that grow from a team of two to 100 employees + In the early days, founders often dash out grand titles like COO, CMO and CTO. Then when they start to scale they realise some of those people can’t grow to fulfill the role. It leads to awkward conversations such as demotions or letting people go. Remember, during the early days, “we were a family.” So it feels like firing friends. Quick tip, when hiring in a startup, don’t just hire for the need today, hire talent that can grow with you. PS. Not every individual contributor should be promoted to become managers either. I’ll save that for another post 😉

Hiring top talent for a startup can be challenging. One key aspect is selling your company to candidates even before they apply officially to the role. It's not about lying or hiding behind a curtain, but rather being able to share your passion for the job opportunity, they need to see the spark in your eyes. At Stenn, we're building a world-class finance platform to support a 100% YoY growth. The challenge is to scale while maintaining high consistency, and the opportunity to design something from scratch that impacts the whole company.
