First Five Hires

The first five hires are mission critical. We go above and beyond to help you get them right.
Key talent that will set the culture for the next decade and beyond, and it's a core driver of momentum in the early days.

Zachary Kirstein

Northwood

“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.”

Dylan Enright

Radiant

"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."

Ken Hackenberg

Mesh Optical

“My experience is relatively niche, so it was amazing to be connected by Mike to a venture where my skillset will play an enabling role. And after meeting the founders and seeing what they have been working on, joining Mesh became a complete no-brainer!”

Dan Meinzer

Northwood

"Talking with Mike was an important part of finding where I am today. I thought I was simply reaching out to Mike to learn why he believes in the team and business - but in addition I gained perspective on my own personal career and a helpful dose of reality. I am happy to see him continue to have positive impacts when he interacts with candidates and leaders at Northwood."

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 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
