How I Use Twitter to Hire Developers & Designers - Tips For You Oct 08, 2020

Show notes

In this show I discuss how I commonly use Twitter to find and hire developers and designers for small startups or independent contracting/freelancing projects. The tips in this episode are not universal job searching advice. This is coming from the lens of when there is a single person (not an HR department) doing to hiring, which is often the case at startups. Hope you enjoy!
