Hiring insights

What your startup offer is actually worth.

Seb, Clera's Co-Founder, plus two heavy hitters from the SF startup scene, on the numbers nobody explains before you sign.

How startups screen before anyone reads your resume. How to price equity against stage and runway, with real examples. Which red flags mean walk away, and which are just normal early-stage chaos. Then confirm or deny, where the panel takes on the hiring myths you've heard at every mixer this week. Doors at 6:30, panel at 7, then questions and drinks.

Confirm or deny: warm up for the panel
Equity at a seed startup is worth roughly nothing.
Six months of runway is a red flag.
They read your LinkedIn before your resume.
