Details

We are an early-stage startup focused on developing wearable technologies for beauty. Our first product is internally referred to as ePolish. ePolish are artificial nails that can instantly change colour from a mobile app by bringing the ePolish into proximity to the phone. Our team is entirely comprised of two technical founders who are currently focused on finishing the prototype. We both have limited experience dealing with teams and would like students to help us develop strategies for recruitment and talent management.

Deliverables

Recruitment goals:

- Interviewing etiquette, creating a research-based interviewing plan regarding what works in our industry

- Assessing incoming talent for technical and non-technical positions (hardware/software engineers, finance, design, etc.), creating a strategy to determine best fitting candidates for the role and our company's culture

Talent management goals:

- Evaluating performance and having a strategy to allow excellent talent to continue motivated, and helping improve those underperforming

- Disciplinary policy development

Mentorship

We will have weekly meetings and follow-up with the instructor every 3 weeks.
