What did you get done this week?
That is my takeaway. I have noticed that sometimes we convince ourselves that we have been productive the whole week, but when we look back, we realize that we can't account for a significant portion of our time or the tasks we completed. To avoid this, I developed a simple app to monitor my time and productivity.
Love it! What an amazing and informative writeup Sandeep Panda! Thank u for sharing such insightful learnings! 😊
Wow, Sandeep Panda, this blog post is truly a game-changer! Your insights on mistakes to avoid while recruiting for a startup are so spot-on and will be incredibly valuable for anyone looking to build a strong, diverse, and effective team. This gives me an idea for my next blog post. "Mistakes to avoid while working in a startup" I will share my detailed experience sometime soon.
This is great. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Sandeep.
We apply some of the same rules when hiring, except for maybe one:
Hire people who think like you
I like to have people aboard who think differently until our goals align.
Besides the founders, the others are in for the money.
So, it's fine if your goals aren't to take my company to the moon (why would they be), but if at least one of your goals is to write excellent code or provide great support for our clients, you're in.

Mind-blowing content. It gives me an overview of not only the hiring process but also the importance of teamwork and people in the fast-growing start-up culture, which will eventually lead to greater success for the company.
I have applied for one of the open positions at Hashnode, and now this blog gives me a deeper understanding of how the Hashnode team thinks about hiring.
