Active sourcing

Key Insights That Helped Us Hire The Perfect Candidate

It can be difficult to compete with bigger companies for benefits, but people are mostly looking for a place where they can grow, and the company has a good culture, which tends to be better in smaller teams
HubSpot proficiency can be learned, so look for people who might not have so much experience but are interested in learning further
Take a look at the specific software company itself - in this case HubSpot - for talent. Sometimes it's worthwhile to go directly to the source!
