Transparency is required.
You have to share your business' monthly revenue numbers to do an interview. Sorry, but no exceptions here.
You need a scalable, revenue-generating, tech-related product. Businesses and side projects, bootstrappers and fundraisers, hackers and hustlers, are all welcome. But no consultancies, agencies, studios, or anyone trading manpower for dollars.
