The Successes and Failures of Hiring a Remote Team of 11 [WordCamp Talk]

Howdy! Below are my slides for today's talk so feel free to follow along.

Hiring an employee or a contractor is difficult, but even more so when you’ve never met! But in today’s digital age, meeting someone face-to-face isn’t a requirement for working together. I’ll lay out some of what I’ve learned successfully and unsuccessfully hiring remote team members and growing a team of 10+.

I want to give you some actionable tips and tools that will shed some light on some of the successes and failures I had in putting a team together and help you avoid some of the same mistakes I did and duplicate some of the wins.
