採用ガイド
Hiring the right finance expert can be the difference between growing with clarity and running blind. This guide walks you through what to look for, what to ask, and what to avoid.
最初の通話やセッションでこれらを活用して、適性と専門性をすばやく評価してください。
1.Have you worked with companies at my stage and in my industry?
重要な理由: Finance needs vary dramatically by stage. A CFO who scaled a $100M company may not know how to set up your first chart of accounts or build a seed-stage model.
2.Can you walk me through a financial model you've built from scratch?
重要な理由: Anyone can say they do financial modeling. Asking them to walk through an example reveals their depth, approach, and how clearly they can explain assumptions.
3.How do you approach cash flow forecasting for a business like mine?
重要な理由: This is where most early-stage finance goes wrong. You want someone who builds bottoms-up models from real assumptions, not top-down guesses.
4.What's your experience with fundraising preparation?
重要な理由: If you're planning to raise, you need someone who knows what investors actually look for — not just technically correct numbers, but investor-ready narrative and scenario planning.
5.How do you stay current on changes in accounting standards or tax law?
重要な理由: Finance and tax rules change constantly. You want an advisor who proactively tracks changes, not one who gets surprised by them.
セッションは通常、現在の財務状況(損益計算書、資金残高、バーンレート、目標)の詳細な確認から始まります。その後、専門家が課題を特定し、シナリオをモデル化しながら、具体的なアクションプランを提示します。一般論ではなく、数字に基づいた率直なアドバイスが期待できます。
