Publisher's summary

From the founder and CEO of one of Silicon Valley’s hottest start-ups comes a behind-the-scenes guide to recruiting and closing the best talent in the world.

Your company’s future rests on the people who make it up - but how does a small, early stage company lure industry veterans away from comfortable jobs? Conversely, if your company is inundated with applicants, how do you separate the good from the truly great? And once you’ve found your dream candidate, how do you make sure they say yes to you every time?

In this essential primer, Bolt founder and CEO Ryan Breslow offers insights drawn from his experience growing Bolt from an idea to a multibillion-dollar company. Along the way, he interviewed thousands of possible candidates and developed a rigorous process for finding, screening, and closing the very best.

This book includes email templates, interview questions, and even how to run a thorough reference check. Breslow coaches leaders on everything from attracting talent to communicating a company's vision to drafting emails that will help you close the deal. This is a step-by-step breakdown of how to bring the best talent in the world to work for you, and it’s an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to take their team and company to the next level.

Thoughts from a Meta/Google Recruiter

I'm one of the Metaverse Research Recruiters at Meta and I was the Leadership Recruiter for the Google Search Algorithm before this role. We have a lot of great interview training both at Meta and Google - but I've frequently been asked for books that distill that knowledge. Up to now, I've only been able to recommend Laszlo Bock's 'Work Rules' which published his work on hiring science at Google. It's an amazing book but tends to be too technical and long for most hiring managers.

I'm going to start recommending this book for a quicker read. Ryan did a great job summarizing the work we did at Meta and Google Recruiting. He talks about strategy but also goes into detail about novel tactics a manager can try. It's an easy-to-understand guide for good recruiting practices.
