Clubhouse THREAD, apologies in advance

Clubhouse has the potential to become mainstream and huge but I worry they are screwing it up right now by growing too fast, before they've got their recommendation algos good enough for mainstream It's too hard to find good rooms and most people who open the app are presented with a scroll of shite

The good bits are like a great podcast you can interact with. The bad bits are like the worst conference call in history

We've been doing a secret hiring experiment.

and I think it's working ;)

THREAD ⬇️ I was dissatisfied with traditional hiring. You get tons of CVs, can't possibly interview everyone so choose some with prestigious employers/education and relevant keywords.

THREAD. Over the past few weeks I've noticed a lot of parents quietly, almost ashamedly, hinting to each other that their lives are quite tricky at the moment. They are hesitant because they know that their experience is nothing like what doctors, nurses and patients are going through. They feel lucky in many ways. But at the same time they are struggling, and many are hitting a wall.

If you don’t have kids, it’s hard to really grasp what life is like for your child-ed colleagues. If you’re a child-free boss asking your employees how they are – like a good boss would -- and they’re saying ‘fine, thanks!’ and you’re thinking your job is done… you may want to dig a little deeper.
