You could be the company that makes it like a better advantage. It completely changes the trajectory of those businesses that you work with. >> Now, you were talking about the when you said imagine you work at a company, that kind of like reminded me of how obsessed you guys are when it comes to hiring. >> I was talking how it's you know it's everyone says it's all about the people. It really is. What does that mean for me? Um we have a very sort of specific equation with regards to what we're looking for um and how we weigh that up. So we have we have values and we hire against those values. We believe it is a compounding strategy if you have the best people willing to give more to to that business and to that mission and to that team. We will we would rather pass on an eight out of 10 person even if we spend 10 hours with them and like they're solid. They'd be decent, not
bad. That for us won't work at this stage. You know, ask me again when we're a thousand people. I haven't got that. Maybe we need to change how we do it, but my view and the best businesses I know do this as long as they can is that we want those special people and so our approach takes into account how hard that is. There's there's no easy hacky way to do that. Part of me doing this podcast is because we're trying to employ improve employer branding and it shouldn't be so outbound heavy. So what you know, there's some hacks you can maybe do to make it easier, but basically we need good people to find us or we need to find them. Um and then when we find them it's a very intensive process, you know, multiple you meet a lot of people, there's practical challenges and then it's just holding a high bar. So it's you know, I won't go through the exact process we run, but it's a very very
rigorous process. The type that if somebody gets through and gets an offer, they feel it. You know, it's not like, oh I wonder if I'll take that one like you you can't have got through the only process and not be sure if you want to or not. It's too much effort. They'd be you'd quit along the way and that's partly intentional, right? We want the people who might quit to quit along the way before they join us.
