Choose the right perspective
Match the person's company stage and ownership to yours, since a venture-backed startup, a private-equity portfolio company and a public company ask different things of HR. If your question is about a specific area such as compensation, acquisitions or HR operations, favor someone whose titles or profile name that area.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How did you build or reshape the people function when the company scaled quickly or changed ownership?
- 02How do you compete for engineering, product and clinical talent at the same time, and how do pay and career paths differ between those groups?
- 03What HR systems, metrics and board reporting did you put in place first, and which ones changed decisions?
