Keep in mind that this is a marketing blog post for a fairly simple hiring platform.
The target audience for this is small to medium businesses, not corporations or competitive startups, who would be potential customers. It's more of a starting place for people who do not think about this much.
My guess is that HN is not the target audience for this blog post, so take what the simplicity of what is said with a huge grain of salt.
- astura 7y agoWhy do small to medium businesses have different hiring questions than corporations or competitive startups?
- kortilla 7y agoBecause they are of a lower intellectual class and primarily employ chimpanzees and orangutans.
