Early-stage founders hire without recruiters or an ATS. This template helps small teams run their first hires in one simple workspace, so roles, candidates, and equity offers stay organized and a founder spends time on candidates, not spreadsheets.
What's Included
- Role list: open positions, priority, and target start date.
- Candidate records: name, source, stage, and founder notes.
- Equity-offer field: comp range and equity band per finalist.
- Simple pipeline: sourced to chatting to interviewed to offer.
How To Use
- Clone the template into your workspace.
- List the roles you need to fill first.
- Add candidates and move them through stages.
- Track offers and start dates to close.
