Founder“HG is our secret weapon. We've hired 4 people so far — and counting!”
Founder“I was told that finding someone with that profile would be impossible. Hello Generalist is nothing short of magic. Fantastic for entrepreneurs.”
Founder“Hello Generalist has been an amazing product for our portfolio companies who need to extend the senior talent on their teams as they grow. This is an incredible tool.”
Operator“HG was the best friend, confidant, and resource I've been craving as a freelancer. The entire process — from match, to interviews, to contracts, and onboarding — was seamless, and it was refreshing to know they were in my corner.”
Founder“I actually feel hopeful again! In hindsight, we would have benefited from having a fractional generalist working with us from day 1 the way we had legal + accounting help from day 1.”
We’re part job marketplace, part recruiter, and part community, fully on a mission to make the future of work more flexible.
Smart people to jump in and help, without the constraint of full-time hiring. Generalists are really, really good at a few things — and have been exposed to many parts of what it takes to build a company.
