My first employee was an unexpected one 😔 Being bootstrapped, I was confused what to pick: 1️⃣ Interns? Low budget but very low professionalism 2️⃣ Part time? High professionalism but low commitment 3️⃣ Full time? Paisa nahi hai 🤑 4️⃣ Equity based hires? Very very tricky I think I made a bad choice here. Bulk hired interns and promised the top 3 a full-time role. Got decent folks at the end but several interns wasted good opportunities. What are your thoughts?

the entrepreneur is very good but the idea was bad and the way to present it was very poor after seeing this founder it makes me think skill is important but not as much as being present at the right place at the right time
