  3. Determine the matrix of competencies needed for your startup and ensure all competencies are covered.
  4. Come up with creative ways to attract talent.
  5. Hire passionate people. You can train them later on the skills required for the job.
  6. Have more than one team member conduct the interview.
  7. Assign tasks to potential hires or try them on a project first.
  8. Provide a detailed on-boarding program for new comers. 
  9. Embark the new comer on your vision and journey.
