The energetic Aly Harji joined me on the podcast to LITERALLY INVITE YOU ON A CANADIAN ROCKETSHIP (almost literally) and while I had him on the line, we talked about how he broke into recruitment in tech and the lessons he learned from helping Shopify scale from 2,000 people to over 14,000 while he was the Talent Sourcing Manager for Commercial and Executive Search at Shopify.
