I’ve had to hire a wide variety of services and contractors to help with different aspects of my business, and I recommend you consider the same when you require special expertise in critical areas. When you DIY it, you risk doing something wrong, or having to hire someone to fix it, which means you now wasted both time and money.

The point of an engineering interview is to figure out if you want to hire a person or not. This is because hiring the wrong person could be extremely damaging to a company. Not hiring anyone is also extremely damaging. Diagrams, architectures, design, etc. For a startup especially, not taking risks means dying.

It’s pointless to learn cross platform app development from scratch when you can hire someone. Go the extra mile to find the coder who stays up all night and the graphic designer who spends their free time in museums. The second key in starting a start up is picking your team. To get great results you need great people.

Just last week, start-up supremo Naval Ravikant of AngelList wrote how the “oversupply” of founders starting companies is making it harder to hire for the average startup. An increase in tech talent wouldn’t be a bad thing when hiring for established companies either, but we need minds to be both technical and entrepreneurial.
