Sounds nice, but that list is all about you. Startup people need to be laser focused on the customer.

- kerryfalk 16y agoI think he covered that in his(her) last paragraph where he intentionally left out the kinds of products and therefore the kinds of customers to chase. I didn't read it as a selfish list of needs with no regard for the team or the customer. In fact, I thought it was refreshing. It seems like he has a good grasp on the kind of team he wants to be a part of and what he can contribute. I would be more inclined to hire someone like that for my team than someone who wasn't that self-aware.
- HedgeMage 16y agoThanks, kerryfalk, you got my point exactly. :)
- euroclydon 16y agoThere's nothing start-up specific about that list and getting hired and starting a company are two different things.
- HedgeMage 16y agoThat's where solving real-world problems and building something I'm proud of come in -- without knowing what the startup's customer will be like, how could I possibly be more specific?
- euroclydon 16y agoI got the impression this thread was about being an entrepreneur, not an employee.
