- schedule company wide days off instead of relying on people to use individual pto during burnout periods
- compete on lifestyle and work life balance when you cannot match big company salaries
- give senior engineers real time off since losing them costs you mentoring capacity for junior talent
- ask story based interview questions like tell me about a conflict with a coworker to spot red flags early
- batch interview stages close together so you do not lose candidates to faster moving companies
