I've been trying to find a tech cofounder for my company (Lemro) for the past 3 months. I've tried these things: - Tried "relevant & qualified" folks (3 of them) in my network. - Contacted nearly all of the tech cofounders in my area (Delhi, India) on Linkedin and AngelList, and requested them to refer some rockstar programmer. - Posted on relevant job sites including AngelList. - Tried relevant events like Startup Weekend, etc. There are not many hackathons happening locally so didn't attend any of those. What are the other possible ways I can try? Is there anything I am doing wrong?
You are doing everything right, but the funny thing I noticed working in this field, is that our there is full of people looking for programmers and programmers looking for projects. What I would suggest you is not use the channels you think are right, but to look for the channels the programmers actually use to find a job. Make a quick search on which channels are usually used by programmers to get a job, the social groups or meetups they usually use, and there you will find your co-founder.
