Gitta Blatt, Head of People at Wooga, provides lessons learned and recommendations for hiring the best people for startups. She discusses the importance of getting recruitment basics right by defining what roles and skills are needed. Referrals are the top talent channel at Wooga, making up 40% of hires, so networking and managing university relations are key. While volume is important, focus is crucial - don't pursue ideas just because they are popular. Consider fit over just skills, look at individuality and personality, and engage candidates throughout the screening and interviewing process. Make hiring decisions based on what you really want to know about candidates, not just opinions of the highest paid employees.
