TIPS Hiring
Hire doers Doers will get stuff done even if
they are working in Disney Land.
Hire people you can trust Remote work stops working
when you can't trust the person.
Trust the people you hire You also need to
exhibit trust with the people you hire.
Hire people who can write In working remote, almost
everything is shared via written communication.
Hire people who are ok without a social workplace!
