Ask HN: Should I start my own company after I graduate?
I'm sure many forums have asked this question before, but I'm not looking to start a startup, but a consulting business. Specifically a technical recruiting agency. The backstory is that I learned how to code in college, but wasn't that great. I ended up working for a recruiting agency while in school and I'm trying to figure out if I should continue to work with the agency I'm with or go out on my own. Happy to give more info if needed.

- sharemywin 10y agoDo you have a plan for finding customers? If you have worked in the sales part of the company and the recruiting part you have a chance. assuming you know what it takes to get new customers.
- aml183 10y agoYes, but I don't know how it will play out since I'll be recruiting under my own brand and not the company brand.
- sharemywin 10y agoI doubt recruits will care about you, it's the hiring company that's more important. just make sure they aren't working with someone else with that company.
