The highs and lows of our scramble to build the Hatch Exchange during the pandemic
Team update: A lot has happened since this blog - all great things! We’re now in the United States and our new product launched in November 2021, helping teams in fast-growing organisations find and hire their best-fit junior and mid-level talent in Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Customer Success. Try it here for free. This means some of our articles before this date may have product shots that look a little different. That’s all from us, enjoy the blog.
Just as we were getting ready to formally launch Hatch this year, as a digital platform connecting students to meaningful work, news of COVID came through, demonstrating that even the best-laid plans can go awry.
As a startup, this could have easily spelled the end of things for us. But with some quick thinking and positivity, we were able to transform our matching technology and platform to create the Hatch Exchange.
It wasn't all smooth sailing though, and through this process, we've learnt a bunch of lessons that have shaped what Hatch as a product and our team culture looks like moving forward.
