Aria Finger of Do Something on Building a Company that Isn't for Everyone
Listen now
Description
Do Something has a reputation for having one of the best company cultures around--but when I say "best", I mean consistent and pervasive--not necessarily one that works everywhere.  That's what struck me when I spoke to Aria Finger.  I could imagine people listening to this podcast and applying for a job there right away, or saying that they could never work in this kind of environment.  It isn't for everyone--and that's the point.  One of the strongest filters of a recruiting and hiring process should be the company culture.  Not everyone should get excited to work there--because then your culture probably isn't very strong.  I talked to Aria about all the care and feeding that goes into this and how she maintains it as CEO.
