With 15 years experience, many of the start-ups I've helped eventually reached scale. I often partnered during Series C-F phase, when international expansion and acquisition/IPO was top of mind. Across 20+ orgs that have reached scale, I have headhunted and interviewed thousands of candidates across 35 countries. The challenges that face a scaling org, are quite different to earlier stage start-ups, but the fundamentals of recruitment and engagement stay the same. In many cases, I worked with these companies to refine their recruitment and HR functions, providing impact to thousands of people.
