Hiring an HR specialist isn’t a line item in most seed funding pitches. Startups usually can’t justify hiring a non-revenue generating employee early on. The existing team needs to be onboard, and it’s essential to helping make sure that new hires are the right fit. You want new hires up to speed quickly.
