Staffing Agency & Recruiting Leads
A new round is the clearest hiring signal there is: the money is usually earmarked for headcount, and the founders are still doing the recruiting themselves. These are funded startups with open roles on their own careers pages right now. Adamlead tracks 48 funded startups hiring right now, $6.5B raised between them, with 164 decision-maker contacts on file.
- Lead with the roles they've posted, not a generic pitch
- Founders and Heads of People own hiring at this stage
- Reach out in the weeks after the round, before an in-house recruiter starts
