How to find interview candidates
- Moment of pain - Interact with people when they are facing the problem you are trying to solve.
- Referrals - At the end of every interview ask them if they know someone else who is having the same problem. You are likely to get a referral if they felt comfortable and you respected their time.
- Conferences and meetups - They are great for finding candidates because they bring together people with common interests. You need to briefly talk to people, get their contact details and send them a short e-mail the next day to ask for a conversation.
- Online forms - Create a survey about the problem you are solving, without mentioning your product. Based on their responses, e-mail the people that best match your problem.
- Landing page - Create a landing page for your product or the problem you are solving. Include a call to action, a price choice if applicable, and a request for an e-mail address so you can schedule interviews with them.
