> Out of the people I had hired at my last startup:
> 12% of hires where exceptional hires (I would instantly hire again)
> 42% of Hire were good hires. (I wouldn’t hire again but they did a fine job)
> 29% of hires were bad hires. (They didn’t do a good job and were eventually let go)
> 17% of hires were very bad hires (They had a negative effect on the company culture and other staff)
These seem like extremely poor numbers. I haven't hired a ton of people but all of them have been excellent, though some that I was peripherally involved in hiring have been just good. I'm curious what other people feel that their ratio is.
