I’d say each role has its own perks and challenges. As an HR pro, you get to shape the whole hiring process and think about culture and compliance, but it can feel a bit removed from the day-to-day team dynamics. Being a hiring manager, especially in a startup, means you get super hands-on with picking your team and building relationships from the ground up. It’s more intense and sometimes chaotic, but also really rewarding when you see your hires thrive. If you love being close to the action and driving the team’s growth, the hiring manager role could be a great fit.
I've worked in hiring for a startup and you're basically a one-man show. You have to do all of the onboarding, training, compliance, outreach, interviewing… It's a lot. I'm not sure how many people you'd be working with, but my guess is probably not many. Which can be a little bit isolating.
