nextNY Video: Hiring for Startups - Part 3
Written by Allen Stern - May 21, 2008
Last night the nextNY group held a "tips for startup hiring" event which was attended by about 75 folks. The conversation was lively throughout and I was able to capture nearly the entire 90 minute session on video. Some of the topics covered include:
- general hiring tips
- should you use an attorney?
- how to find an attorney
- how to find the best developer
- what to look for in a developer
- where to find talent
- do referrals work?
- assignment of inventions form - apparently this is critical
- compensation - equity, bonus, etc.
- how to fire team members and partners
- how do you find a partner
- what type of equity arrangements work best for partners
- ways to incorporate - this is actually an excellent discussion in part 1 of the video at about the 8:00 mark - discussion of asset lifetime with Delicious and capital gains treatment
- where to incorporate - delaware is best they say
Here's part 3 -- check out part 1, part 2 and part 4 - enjoy!
