Learnings from scaling Blinkist to +200 employees
In this week's #TalentBuzz, I talk with the Founder & CEO of Blinkist about their talent acquisition journey. Here are the things we will cover in this episode:
🚀 Don’t be fooled by someone who seems to be great just because the average of applicants is low
🚀Sometimes you don't know what great looks like until you've seen it
🚀 The first employees you hire define your culture alongside with you
🚀 Active sourcing & building Talent Pipelines all the time.
🚀 Learning: hire a recruiter early on, and/or don't be afraid to spend money on recruiting agencies for high-impact roles.
🚀Funding rounds: A, B & C rounds in 2016, 2017 & 2018 → How these affected the hiring at the time?
