We want to hire junior developers

July 10, 2020

We want to hire junior developers.

But, we need productivity right away.

Really?

Think backward.

You should be able to hire developers at every level.

To mentor them.
To grow them.

In a dry talent pool, your company will thrive.

Give them a chance.

You know what won’t give you productivity?

Poaching the same devs everyone is trying to hire.

Short term moves mean short term wins.

This is not Tinder.

And even if it was.

To live “happily forever after”,

you gotta swipe right from time to time.



Stay cool,
