First Five
The first five hires are mission critical. We go above and beyond to help you get them right.
Key talent will set the culture for the next decade and beyond, and it’s a core driver of momentum in the early days.
Also Capital is uniquely situated to do this for two reasons:
- We only work with a small handful of companies each year. Because of this, we know their needs, styles, and preferences intimately well, which allows us to be uniquely helpful in sourcing and identifying relevant talent;
- The Also Capital team has personally hired over hundreds of people in technical and non-technical roles. We have experience, and a good sense of how to bridge the needs of companies with the skills of a given individual
“I distinctly remember feeling a sense of excitement after I got off the phone with Mike for the first time. He was an invaluable resource throughout the initial conversations with the Northwood team and navigating joining something so early for the first time. I wouldn’t be where I am today without Mike.”
Zachary KirsteinHead of Growth, Northwood
"Mike has been a mentor us through every challenge we have encountered—from recruiting and raising capital to getting in touch with the best in the industry. It's hard to write less than a full page of good things about him. Working with Mike is not just like having another VC on the cap table, he's on the journey with you and somehow manages to do the same for all of his portfolio companies."
Matej CernosekCEO & Co-founder, AndrenaM
"Mike and his team were instrumental to my opportunity at Radiant. Unlike others, Mike actually took the time to assess my work and make a personal and specific introduction."
