Gagan Biyani 🏛 on Hiring

A few lessons: 1. You always lose a job for a reason. For me, managing was not natural. Get a coach and look inward. You'll learn! 2. Be classy on the way out. I left Udemy on good terms; I didn’t cause trouble. It paid off; I kept a good reputation and Udemy treats me well.

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
Frames the idea around what the reader stands to lose, which is more motivating than gain.
Follows a clear Hook → List → List shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → List → List
Style: Listed out, so each point can be lifted on its own.
Tone: personal, energetic, punchy
Mechanisms: Loss aversion
Written for: Hiring managers and founders
