Ask HN: Hiring tech roles Nigeria, any suggestions?
I'm the CTO of an early-stage saas company in the UK and we're starting operations in Nigeria. We are totally focused on building out the team there with a dedicated hiring function (the first thing we learned about doing business in Nigeria is that whatever you're doing, you _have_ to know someone to get it done right) but we'd like to get moving fast and start hiring some Nigerian tech talent.
My question is, outside of Andela/Toptal/etc. (which we're trying to avoid) could anyone recommend any platforms/jobs boards/other approaches for tech hiring that might be good places to start. Linkedin and Indeed look fairly decent but another thing we've learned about Nigeria is you don't know unless you know.
Thanks and happy to chat to anyone else doing or looking business in Nigeria, would love to hear from you.
