In such an earl stage in a starup with extremely limited funding, it would be hard to consider our non existent product a for profit venture. I think there is a balance where both the intern and us could benefit. They get the experience, and a chance to prove themselves. If they proof themselves and the venture is successful they could later become full time. Does this sound feasible?

- gaustin 16y agoDepending on your embryonic product and where you are geographically, you might be able to find someone excellent. You up your chances if building your product helps someone build a portfolio (especially open source). Offering some equity would be good too, but you'd have to very carefully balance the amount of ownership versus the candidates skill. My email is in my profile. Get in touch if you want to talk more. I might know someone who might be willing to donate some time, if the project is right.
