Specialty Recruitment for Founding Teams
Legendary businesses are built downstream of high performing founding teams.
Traditional recruitment processes fail at building core founding teams for startups. Napkin Recruiting is pioneering a new approach.
We bring founding teams together not through job postings but through meaningful and exploratory conversations; the sort of conversations where business ideas might take form on a cocktail napkin.
Our Process
Screening
We work backwards from the minimum viable product for the business to develop the talent requirements for your founding team.
Fostering Connections
We connect you to relevant talent outside of your network to have meaningful and exploratory conversations.
Aligned with Your Success
We care that you get this right. Our fees are only payable if your founding team is successful.
“As a founder you have to build a team someday, so why not start the day you found the company?”
