Who Wants to be a Start-Up Star?
MONDAY June 4th - India Grand Buffet dinner & networking 6:30-7:30 - Panel 7:30 -8:30
Silicon Valley is still a GREAT place for startups to form.. Here we have great research universities to generate ideas, Venture Capital firms for seed money, and the greatest concentration of technical talent. Yet one of the challenges startups face is finding and hiring the RIGHT talent.
From our point of view, as potential startup employee's, we'd like to know how to get to be that Talent.
We have assembled a panel of folks who have built successful startups, to discuss what they look for in their early hires.
Questions to be discussed include:- What are the essential qualities that differentiate the successful employees they would hire for their next startup from those who have great talent, but shouldn't be hired in a startup situation?
- How should startup candidates prepare for their interview?
- What kinds of experiences show those qualities?
- When we are available how, do we get "in the loop" to learn about potential startups?
Please join us on Monday, June 4th for this exciting discussion..
