One thing I’ve learned while managing a growing company, is that hiring the right people isn’t easy. My hiring and interviewing process has evolved quite drastically over the years. I’ve learned that hiring is a true skill that gets better over time and with experience.

In the last 12 months, I've hired 6 team members, so I thought I’d document my hiring process into 10 steps:

1. Write out your Job Post
2. Post the Job
3. Organize and Vet Qualified Applicants
4. Make Your Initial Contact
5. Scheduling the First Phone/Skype Conversation
6. Create a Shortlist
7. Second Call with Shortlist Applicants
8. Third Call with the Department Manager
9. Send a Test/Scenario to Top Candidates
10. Send the Job Offer!

What is Founder Views - SaaS, Business, and Beyond?

Founder Views is a podcast for SaaS builders who want real conversations, not recycled playbooks.

Hosted by Kosta Panagoulias, a 2x SaaS founder, the show features in-the-trenches conversations with SaaS CEOs, operators, and experts. Each episode digs into the decisions, strategies, wins, and struggles that shape real companies - practical insights from people actively building, not theorizing.

While the core focus is SaaS growth, leadership, and execution, the podcast also leaves room for broader discussions that help founders think better - whether that’s economics, technology, markets, or other big-picture business topics.

If you want raw, easy-to-follow conversations with people who've actually built something, you’ll feel right at home.
