This post was written by Ziggeo’s founder, Susan Danziger: Every founder goes through at least one head-smacking moment. I went through two for Ziggeo.
The first happened while sitting in an interview with a candidate who clearly wasn’t a fit. I remember thinking: if I only I could have played his video beforehand. Would have saved me tons of time. Head smack — build a platform to capture candidate videos for employers to view. The second came one morning in an investor’s meeting after spending a painful year building our own video recording/playback solution. Let others use the technology we developed for their own platforms (queue: head smack). We launched Ziggeo’s video APi shortly thereafter. We may all have head-smacking, eureka moments at one time or another – the trick of course is acting on them. This post was based on a Ziggeo’s founder, Susan Danziger’s, post published earlier today on her personal blog.
