Never worked at a start up before and don't know much about them. For those with experience in this area, what do you look for in a start up? I've heard some people make small fortunes off of start ups but I've also heard my fair share of horror stories.
Leadership - is this a first time founder? or have they had exits in the past that were impressive?
Product - do they have product market fit, or looking towards it. Ask for a few examples of clients, if you haven't heard of any of them, they probably haven't gotten to the product market fit phase.ย
