Most hiring advice is written for the company. This one isn’t.
We’re getting inside the hiring process from the candidate side: what companies say they’re doing vs. what actually happens.
What we’ll cover
• First calls: what companies are actually screening for
• Equity: what your number means, and how to tell if it’s worth anything
• Comp: how to read an offer against stage, runway, and dilution
• Red flags: why companies go quiet, and which silences matter
• Final rounds: the questions that get real answers
• Saying no: how to walk away without burning the relationship
Saying no: how to walk away without burning the relationship
