As the startup landscape changes, so do recruiting strategies. Downsizing at large tech companies and a tight labor market require founders to navigate a conservative job market to attract and retain top talent.
The hiring landscape of 2025 will bring challenges and opportunities for those who can adapt. Founders have more influence, but respecting staff and retaining key players remains important. How can entrepreneurs strike this balance?
Join us at TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 from October 28-30 at Moscone West in San Francisco for a conversation with Heather Doshay, People & Talent Partner at SignalFire, Lauren Illovsky, Talent Partner at CapitalG, and Roger Lee, CEO of Comprehensive.io, as we explore innovative recruiting strategies to align with changing market conditions.
