Left SF 60 hours ago. Squeezed 2 long days of work + a dope Halloween party in NYC and I'm already back home in SF sitting at my desk thinking of where I'm going to spend my afternoon working today. If you're not wide open right now you're going to lose.

Flying from NYC back home to SF. AMA about working at or getting hired by an early startup.

You can only have one - Product manager who can do their own design or a Product designer who manages?

How is it not even 5am and JFK security is this busy? Never been happier to have priority line access. SFO could never.

Nice little sunset tonight.

Our friends at Warp are doing a thing. Go hang if you're in NYC!!!

So happy for Jenny and the team at Alta. They are hiring!

Tonight is the night. If you work in startups and are in NYC, come have fun with us! luma.com/fonzinyc-va2l

Founders: stay in the interview loop until you hit 100 people. Under 100, every hire is 1%+ of the company. You set the bar and you're the best closer. A 30-min final call is enough to ensure your hiring vision is still being implemented properly.

Startups want to hire more research engineers but the research engineers all want to work at the big labs.

I ❤️ NYC

The amount of founders that are just winging their talent strategy day by day never ceases to amaze me and I love them for that.

Little early preview of my costume for tomorrow night's rager at the Fonzi HQ in Brooklyn. Who wants to come join?

Seed startups are making the work trial their final round. Of the hundreds of interview plans posted on Fonzi, 4 in 10 at seed include a work trial, often in person and sometimes multi-day. At Series A+ it's 1 in 8. A work trial is the best signal you'll get on a candidate. It's also the biggest ask you'll make of someone who probably has a job. Founders: What are you doing?
