Hiring for your seed-stage startup? Get this right, and you accelerate growth. Get it wrong, and you stall before you even take off. Andrew Chen breaks it down: You need T-shaped individuals—people with deep expertise in one area but broad enough skills to tackle multiple challenges. Versatility is everything. And when in doubt, prioritize doers over strategists. Execution trumps theory in the early days. You need team members who turn ideas into action, move fast, and adapt even faster. The right team doesn’t just help you build a company. They help you survive. Choose wisely.
