02 / Hirehive FAILURE REASONS
Failure factors
Deadpool Friday (5 Nov 2010, opened) quotes YC HireHive founders: shutting HireHive (video job-screen questionnaires) because they could not adequately support both it and a new product, so they took servers offline path (new signups off; free until 4 Jan 2011).
Founders stated they lacked hours to support HireHive and the new product simultaneously.
Chose cold-turkey shutdown of HireHive rather than let it languish without support.
