The Mentor Minute gives you exclusive startup video clips from the Founder Institute's worldwide network of 40,000+ mentors. For more Mentor Minutes, visit our Startup Founder 101 YouTube Channel

In this clip, Matt Allen, a technical recruiter for Lookahead Search, describes the qualities you should look for when assembling a team for your startup. Matt has previously taught at the Sydney Founder Institute and is currently leading the test launch of a Melbourne Founder Institute.

According to Matt;

The chances of you not being able to technologically execute what you are doing is actually the lowest risk, as far as I'm concerned. So you need the guy who is going to be as pumped up as you are. - Matt Allen

               

If you could benefit from expert training and feedback to launch a company, apply to the Founder Institute today. We are currently accepting applications across Australia, in both Perth and Sydney, and many other cities worldwide
