"I had never hired people before I started Procol.", mentions Gaurav when asked about how he went about building his core team at Procol. As a first-time founder, Gaurav seems to have learned so many things on the way, but he has always stuck to one hiring philosophy from day 0 - "The very best people in most professions see themselves as artists and athletes.
