For the first 10 atleast, hire all rounders and not specialists.
Prefer hiring someone who can work 10 different things than someone who is a niched down specialist in one thing and won't do anything else.
For the first 10.
All the best 👍

Hi Adith, I love this question! Here are some tips to keep in mind:
Out of those 100 employees, can you identify which ones are the key players that will boost your business? Do you have a roadmap to onboard these hires? If you have your goals or tasks in an Eisenhower matrix, it would be easier to define which roles will have an urgent priority.
Do you have an HR or People Care area that can help you manage that number of collaborators? Or do you have C-level managers to assist you? Draft your organizational chart to ensure everyone knows what to do and to whom they should report. You certainly don't need 100 people asking you what to do.
Do you have a hiring strategy? Create a structured hiring process that outlines all the steps involved, from sourcing candidates to onboarding. Determine the roles and skills you need to fill, and establish criteria for evaluating candidates and, most importantly, for hiring them (compensation and benefits).
This is such an exciting topic! Feel free to reach out if you want to talk a bit more about it. I'm happy to help!
Hiring your first 100 co-workers is a big milestone, and it's essential to keep in mind factors like cultural fit, diversity, skills, and growth potential to build a fantastic team that drives success together! 🚀
