Why did we start Hiring from the Heart? Barbara Lee and Reuben Roth both started their recruiting careers in the NYC tech scene. Both had no clue what they were doing. Together, they wanted to pass along wisdom and resources to those interested in recruiting, talent acquisition and people operations.
Hiring and building teams can be difficult. By tuning in, they hope that anyone can be entertained and educated about how to best approach recruiting and relationships.
