In this episode of Startup Survival, we’re getting into the nitty-gritty of all things hiring. There’s a LOT more to hiring an employee than interviewing applicants and choosing your favorite—a lot of which I’ve learned along the way. 

When you really need to hire an employee (like, yesterday) there are countless details you don’t think about, especially if you’re a one-person team. I’ve learned when to optimize my own processes (job descriptions, onboarding, performance management) and when I have to call in the experts (lawyers, financial advisors, human resource managers). 

The tips I lay out in this episode aren’t a comprehensive list, but they will help you think about what you can do right now to set your company and your employees up for success. As you’ll hear in plenty of my examples, it’s never too late to start improving your hiring process.
