2 00:00:25.860 ⇒ 00:00:28.019 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Hey, Rico! Good morning, how are you doing today?
3 00:00:28.480 ⇒ 00:00:29.419 Rico Rejoso: Good, how are you?
4 00:00:30.120 ⇒ 00:00:31.010 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Good, good.
5 00:00:32.650 ⇒ 00:00:33.910 Rico Rejoso: Alright.
6 00:00:33.910 ⇒ 00:00:34.560 Sheshu Chandrasekar: How’s your weekend?
7 00:00:36.430 ⇒ 00:00:37.740 Rico Rejoso: It was quick.
8 00:00:37.740 ⇒ 00:00:39.129 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Oh, yeah, we can get started, yeah.
9 00:00:39.270 ⇒ 00:00:41.869 Sheshu Chandrasekar: That’s quick, yeah, no, I hear you, I hear you.
10 00:00:43.550 ⇒ 00:00:44.910 Rico Rejoso: Yeah.
11 00:00:44.910 ⇒ 00:00:46.039 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Cool, yeah.
12 00:00:46.560 ⇒ 00:00:49.790 Rico Rejoso: Alright, so let me just share my screen.
13 00:00:49.790 ⇒ 00:01:08.350 Rico Rejoso: Okay, Eliza’s out, and we have a couple of meetings today. I’m not sure, we haven’t included you yet on that, but I’ll probably add you to it. Let me know if you’re available or not. We have the ops and the finance meeting today. Not sure if we’re gonna move that one, since, it’s Eliza’s facilitating that, and…
14 00:01:08.890 ⇒ 00:01:11.710 Rico Rejoso: She’s currently out due to technical issues.
15 00:01:14.240 ⇒ 00:01:14.630 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Right.
16 00:01:14.630 ⇒ 00:01:15.180 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
17 00:01:16.580 ⇒ 00:01:17.030 Rico Rejoso: Yes.
18 00:01:17.030 ⇒ 00:01:22.780 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Let me see if I have it on my calendar. I see ops meeting at 12.30 to 1.30 Central Time, and then…
19 00:01:24.100 ⇒ 00:01:26.749 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, I mean, I see a go-to-market planning.
20 00:01:27.630 ⇒ 00:01:31.629 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, after that one, we have the finance at 4pm Eastern.
21 00:01:33.390 ⇒ 00:01:38.089 Sheshu Chandrasekar: finance support. I don’t see that one. I think that may be an important one for me to join.
22 00:01:39.130 ⇒ 00:01:56.919 Rico Rejoso: Yes, but Eliza’s out. I already informed her to add you to it, or if not, probably move the meeting, since, one of our top agenda for that meeting is to discuss software expense review, and, currently she’s the one working on it, because right now, what we’re set up, since we’re the only
23 00:01:56.920 ⇒ 00:02:21.150 Rico Rejoso: through who are involved in operations tasks, we split out those tasks and work on it so we can work faster. So, regarding, if you can see the Gantt chart here, I think you’re not yet added here, but I’ll probably add you after our meeting. Aor confirmation, software expense reviews, these are, like, the few projects Eliza’s working on on the operations side, and this one is what we’re going to discuss later.
24 00:02:21.220 ⇒ 00:02:22.000 Rico Rejoso: But…
25 00:02:22.030 ⇒ 00:02:41.689 Rico Rejoso: Due to Eliza being out, and she haven’t handed off the agenda or the discussion point for this project, I don’t think we… I mean, this is our main point for the, meeting with finance later, and some, like, the C-Corp transition, and the
26 00:02:41.690 ⇒ 00:02:44.429 Rico Rejoso: payroll process.
27 00:02:44.850 ⇒ 00:02:51.029 Rico Rejoso: But yeah, since she’s out, I don’t know how we’re gonna discuss this later, because she’s the only one working on this for now.
28 00:02:53.270 ⇒ 00:02:57.839 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Got it. That makes sense. So, do we want to move the meeting to tomorrow?
29 00:02:58.430 ⇒ 00:03:00.730 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, I did inform her… Oh, when is the lesson about?
30 00:03:01.940 ⇒ 00:03:13.999 Rico Rejoso: I’m not sure. I mean, she just mentioned that her computer’s not turning on, and she’s working on getting it resolved, but I’m not sure if she…
31 00:03:14.150 ⇒ 00:03:18.380 Rico Rejoso: He’ll be able to, like, get back online today.
32 00:03:18.500 ⇒ 00:03:27.439 Rico Rejoso: But yeah, if not, I’ll probably inform the finance and UTAM that we’ll move it tomorrow. And Eliza will be coordinating with the time…
33 00:03:27.680 ⇒ 00:03:29.640 Rico Rejoso: Of the meeting.
34 00:03:31.680 ⇒ 00:03:33.429 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay. Yeah, not a problem.
35 00:03:34.580 ⇒ 00:03:40.279 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, so, yeah, this is the… let me just add you to this real quick.
36 00:03:41.260 ⇒ 00:03:51.280 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, that’d be really helpful. Oh, you’re… I’m already there. Can you… can you just, delete my email and then add it again? Just… I don’t think I got that, notification.
37 00:03:52.310 ⇒ 00:03:55.700 Rico Rejoso: Sure, let me just copy all the information real quick.
38 00:03:56.300 ⇒ 00:03:57.050 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah.
39 00:03:59.490 ⇒ 00:04:05.020 Rico Rejoso: Okay… And… your email?
40 00:04:07.330 ⇒ 00:04:08.919 Rico Rejoso: Put your admin here.
41 00:04:11.600 ⇒ 00:04:12.210 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sweet.
42 00:04:12.440 ⇒ 00:04:14.160 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Let me check my email right now.
43 00:04:29.170 ⇒ 00:04:30.789 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yep, I got it.
44 00:04:31.260 ⇒ 00:04:32.100 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Thank you.
45 00:04:32.330 ⇒ 00:04:47.390 Rico Rejoso: Alright, yeah. So, I’m happy to discuss, what we have, what are the projects the operations are working on right now. So, these are the high priority tickets that we have, and I think the low priorio projects are scheduled for next month, so we’re just focusing on this one for now.
46 00:04:47.950 ⇒ 00:04:48.690 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
47 00:04:49.270 ⇒ 00:04:49.920 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay.
48 00:04:50.820 ⇒ 00:04:58.569 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, so AR, the AOR doc, Eliza started drafting this one. I guess this is for review.
49 00:04:58.570 ⇒ 00:05:22.650 Rico Rejoso: With the team later on as well. I mean, we’ll probably have you check on in this and see if you have any changes, or if you… if you think there should be any changes on this document. If not, we can proceed in presenting this one. So I think this is one topic that we need to discuss later during our, operations meeting, but I don’t think if… I’m not sure if we’re prepared to discuss this later on as well.
50 00:05:23.450 ⇒ 00:05:28.910 Rico Rejoso: Because most of the Part of the ending tasks here are just for review by the team.
51 00:05:30.980 ⇒ 00:05:38.209 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, can you help me walk me through? So, what is the purpose of the AOR doc? Is this… because I remember seeing that in the, in the,
52 00:05:38.590 ⇒ 00:05:51.630 Sheshu Chandrasekar: forging the future document, like, I got a brief understanding, but, like, is this for… who’s the audience for? What’s the purpose? Like, and how does this affect, like, day-to-day operations?
53 00:05:52.740 ⇒ 00:05:59.749 Rico Rejoso: Sure, let me just, share this one. So, we have this…
54 00:06:01.040 ⇒ 00:06:13.809 Rico Rejoso: Let’s say you are, yes. So it’s just basically the area of responsibility for, each task that we have per department, and as for the operations one, here’s what we have,
55 00:06:15.290 ⇒ 00:06:23.909 Rico Rejoso: It’s just basically listing out all the tasks that the operations team are working on, and who is assigned to it, and making sure that, you know, we have
56 00:06:24.040 ⇒ 00:06:33.780 Rico Rejoso: outside, I mean, basically, it’s just us, you know, what do you call this?
57 00:06:35.780 ⇒ 00:06:38.780 Rico Rejoso: So, you’re probably beyond this one, I guess.
58 00:06:40.080 ⇒ 00:06:41.609 Rico Rejoso: This ops, okay.
59 00:06:41.740 ⇒ 00:06:46.799 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, this is the first time I’m seeing it again since, Eliza’s working on it, but yeah.
60 00:06:47.440 ⇒ 00:06:55.180 Rico Rejoso: Just like all the tests that the operations sites are handling, and, just having a point of contact who’s in charge on working on those projects.
61 00:06:56.710 ⇒ 00:06:58.010 Rico Rejoso: So I think this is still the track.
62 00:06:58.010 ⇒ 00:06:59.380 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, the AOR is that…
63 00:07:00.380 ⇒ 00:07:00.989 Rico Rejoso: Go ahead.
64 00:07:00.990 ⇒ 00:07:01.989 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sorry, go ahead.
65 00:07:02.600 ⇒ 00:07:11.270 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Oh, no, so I was just saying, the AORs that, Eliza and you were writing up, that’s only for the operations team, not for the broader organization.
66 00:07:12.170 ⇒ 00:07:28.799 Rico Rejoso: That is for, everyone in the, in Brain Forge. As you see, there are, like, department roles and projects. Yeah. So, what we’re just working on is just the operations side of it, and each department head are working on their own AOR description.
67 00:07:30.020 ⇒ 00:07:30.770 Rico Rejoso: So, I think it’s.
68 00:07:30.770 ⇒ 00:07:31.770 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Got it for us.
69 00:07:32.090 ⇒ 00:07:33.060 Sheshu Chandrasekar: tackling…
70 00:07:33.710 ⇒ 00:07:42.480 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Gotcha, just for operations. So who’s tackling the other AORs for marketing, sales? Is that Robert or Hannah? Is that anyone else? Or is that also us?
71 00:07:43.250 ⇒ 00:07:51.309 Rico Rejoso: Oh, no, I think it’s… for sales and marketing, it’s just… it’s Robert, and the rest are, like, for the other department heads, so we’re just focused on the operations side.
72 00:07:53.570 ⇒ 00:07:55.829 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Got it. Okay, that… that makes sense.
73 00:07:57.470 ⇒ 00:08:03.459 Rico Rejoso: And I think we’re all good with this one, not sure, but yeah, I’ll have you have a first pass at this one. Let me share this one to you.
74 00:08:03.770 ⇒ 00:08:05.689 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Later. Yeah, yeah.
75 00:08:05.960 ⇒ 00:08:08.910 Rico Rejoso: Well, I think you do have access to it, generally.
76 00:08:09.320 ⇒ 00:08:14.610 Rico Rejoso: Everyone at Brainforge has access on this one. Let me just copy the link and send it to you.
77 00:08:23.680 ⇒ 00:08:24.530 Rico Rejoso: Alright.
78 00:08:25.190 ⇒ 00:08:41.539 Rico Rejoso: So that’s just if. I think we’ll just have a review on the EOR that has been created. We can have a first pass on this and see if we’re good to discussing this later. And another one thing for discussion for our ops meeting would be the, Gantt chart.
79 00:08:41.539 ⇒ 00:09:04.479 Rico Rejoso: So, right now, we’re currently ahead of all the tasks that we have listed out here. Not sure if we have everything listed here, but we have also some tasks in linear. So, basically, what Eliza and I did is that have everything here on our Gantt chart first, and then per week, per cycle, we will be adding it to linear for tracking of
80 00:09:04.480 ⇒ 00:09:10.119 Rico Rejoso: those tasks. And we usually discuss this during our operation sync, which is what we’re doing right now.
81 00:09:12.250 ⇒ 00:09:18.389 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Got it. And so, how… so you said cycle, right? So how long is each cycle? Is it…
82 00:09:18.750 ⇒ 00:09:22.380 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Like, you mean for each quarter, basically? Oh, per one week.
83 00:09:22.380 ⇒ 00:09:23.999 Rico Rejoso: Okay. Like, the week ahead.
84 00:09:24.850 ⇒ 00:09:31.400 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, one cycle lasts for just one week, so yeah, every week we just have… we usually, have different tasks set on.
85 00:09:33.560 ⇒ 00:09:35.440 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Got it. Okay. That makes sense.
86 00:09:36.680 ⇒ 00:09:48.259 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, this one is just the only thing that’s bothering me, to be honest, since we’re not prepared for this. But yeah, I’ll probably send him a message if he lies he’s not back on later. For the legal contract,
87 00:09:48.640 ⇒ 00:10:06.249 Rico Rejoso: I did have a first pass at this one. I did check in with Holly, and she mentioned that we’ll be having… I mean, she’ll be providing the update… the updated contract template today, I guess. We were expecting it last Friday, but since she is out of town and busy with everything.
88 00:10:06.360 ⇒ 00:10:12.640 Rico Rejoso: outside Brainforge as well. She did mention that she’ll need more time and probably send this out today. I’ll…
89 00:10:12.670 ⇒ 00:10:29.419 Rico Rejoso: ping her, within, by midday to follow up on this one. And for the Loom video explanation, this is just a walkthrough on how the contract should be used. So instead of us jumping onto a meeting, with Tom and Robert, we’ll probably… we did ask Holly a few.
90 00:10:29.550 ⇒ 00:10:34.930 Rico Rejoso: send out a Loom video instead, and from then on, we can discuss if we should have a meeting to discuss this further.
91 00:10:36.880 ⇒ 00:10:38.400 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay, sounds good.
92 00:10:39.070 ⇒ 00:10:49.820 Rico Rejoso: Alrighty. Yeah, so this is one, the Notion UI revamp. So we started working on this one, I started with the recruitment, so I could tackle, like, the Notion revamp and the recruitment.
93 00:10:49.930 ⇒ 00:11:04.690 Rico Rejoso: Where’s the other one? The recruitment process, so I started working on some documents for the… or, restructuring some documents for the recruitment site, and at the same time, restructuring the recruitment page.
94 00:11:05.410 ⇒ 00:11:07.240 Rico Rejoso: So you can see it here.
95 00:11:08.730 ⇒ 00:11:10.380 Rico Rejoso: And let me know,
96 00:11:10.730 ⇒ 00:11:26.089 Rico Rejoso: Eliza is supposed to also discuss the visual… it’s a visual presentation how the updated homepage should look like once we implement the Notion revamp. That’s on her documents.
97 00:11:26.090 ⇒ 00:11:35.309 Rico Rejoso: And I think we haven’t got a pass on that one yet. We’re supposed to discuss it later, but I think she’s out, we’ll… I don’t know if we’re gonna discuss it or not.
98 00:11:35.840 ⇒ 00:11:38.180 Rico Rejoso: So let me know what should be our top
99 00:11:38.590 ⇒ 00:11:42.750 Rico Rejoso: If you can help me draft the agenda for the operations meeting later, that would be great.
100 00:11:44.520 ⇒ 00:11:48.910 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, and how do you… do you use, like, Google Slides for that, or…
101 00:11:49.670 ⇒ 00:11:52.069 Sheshu Chandrasekar: What do you… what do you use generally?
102 00:11:52.760 ⇒ 00:12:01.739 Rico Rejoso: We just used this one, we just showed it instant with, with Tom and Clarence, and just provided a quick update on what we’re working on. Actually, it’s just that simple.
103 00:12:01.740 ⇒ 00:12:02.220 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah.
104 00:12:02.220 ⇒ 00:12:17.449 Rico Rejoso: just brought in the ones we discussed, or once we deep dive into, like, like, the list of software that we have, the list of AOR or descriptions that we have, that’s where we go into, showing all the documents and stuff.
105 00:12:19.870 ⇒ 00:12:21.420 Rico Rejoso: Okay, that makes sense.
106 00:12:21.420 ⇒ 00:12:22.219 Sheshu Chandrasekar: I think what I’ll do…
107 00:12:22.220 ⇒ 00:12:23.070 Rico Rejoso: Yes.
108 00:12:23.280 ⇒ 00:12:24.030 Rico Rejoso: Yeah.
109 00:12:25.900 ⇒ 00:12:33.269 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Oh, no, go ahead. Go ahead. Sorry, I didn’t mean to cut you up there. No, no, no, so I was just saying, what I’ll do is, in the next, like.
110 00:12:33.420 ⇒ 00:12:37.600 Sheshu Chandrasekar: maybe, like, an hour or two. I’m kind of drafting up some slides based on
111 00:12:37.720 ⇒ 00:12:46.570 Sheshu Chandrasekar: what we discussed yesterday, to kind of figure out what our priorities would be moving forward, and maybe we could use that to kind of leverage, to talk
112 00:12:46.720 ⇒ 00:12:49.249 Sheshu Chandrasekar: For the operations meeting later today.
113 00:12:49.250 ⇒ 00:12:49.950 Rico Rejoso: Sure.
114 00:12:49.950 ⇒ 00:13:02.180 Sheshu Chandrasekar: But I’ll connect with you at some point today, on an ad hoc basis, and be like, hey, Rico, like, check this out, let me know if this looks good. Once you think it’s, you know, aligned, we can move forward with it.
115 00:13:03.110 ⇒ 00:13:10.140 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, I’m sorry if I don’t have that much information in regards to what to present with the ops meeting, because what’s, I mean, if you are.
116 00:13:10.140 ⇒ 00:13:11.809 Sheshu Chandrasekar: No, you’re good, you’re good.
117 00:13:12.420 ⇒ 00:13:27.700 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, I’m just, you know, the hierarchy right now on the operation and execution, Eliza’s the ops manager and, you being the head of ops, so I want to respect the hierarchy and make sure that, you know, Eliza’s managing it the way she wants it to.
118 00:13:29.730 ⇒ 00:13:32.660 Sheshu Chandrasekar: No, I totally understand, and we can…
119 00:13:33.230 ⇒ 00:13:42.539 Sheshu Chandrasekar: we can… we can just… we can reconvene and just figure out what Eliza think would… if Eliza, you know, shows up today, then all good and well, but if not, like, let’s just…
120 00:13:42.630 ⇒ 00:13:54.360 Sheshu Chandrasekar: figure out… let’s just go… move forward with the plan I have, and then when Eliza’s here, we can kind of course correct and figure out what’s… what’s needed, and I can update Tom and Robert at some point tomorrow, or even later today.
121 00:13:55.330 ⇒ 00:13:56.860 Rico Rejoso: Sure, yes. Definitely.
122 00:13:57.690 ⇒ 00:14:04.649 Rico Rejoso: Okay, yeah, so this is… this one’s a pretty big project, so we didn’t… we don’t expect it to be done here.
123 00:14:04.650 ⇒ 00:14:05.100 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah.
124 00:14:05.100 ⇒ 00:14:16.480 Rico Rejoso: that we’re working on it one by one. We started working on some pages that we can handle, or that we are the one handling. Initially, what we plan is, like, example for the sales pages here.
125 00:14:17.050 ⇒ 00:14:20.700 Rico Rejoso: Oh, this is one… this is the revamped recruitment process, by the way.
126 00:14:21.440 ⇒ 00:14:29.210 Rico Rejoso: If we go to sales, I think the department head and the GTM lead have their own
127 00:14:29.240 ⇒ 00:14:46.990 Rico Rejoso: I mean, are also, like, coming up with, their own format and how this page should look like, and we do respect that one, so if, in case, we will also have the department head, check how they wanted their own page to look like, or if they have time to revamp that, if not, we can assist.
128 00:14:48.010 ⇒ 00:14:59.619 Rico Rejoso: So, main focal point would be, like, revamping the homepage and making sure that it’s, you know, it’s a direct and quick access, even for, new team members.
129 00:15:01.250 ⇒ 00:15:10.469 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, no, exactly, that’s kind of… that’s kind of what I’m working on. That’s literally gonna be the priority for the next two weeks, just getting this homepage up and running, and…
130 00:15:10.880 ⇒ 00:15:22.860 Sheshu Chandrasekar: and make… and kind of in a way, like, just to give you some awareness, like, I’m just doing some audit on this entire notion to see what works, what’s working. Because, like I said, if you remember from last week, when I was talking to Utam, like.
131 00:15:22.940 ⇒ 00:15:31.599 Sheshu Chandrasekar: there’s just too many things on here that doesn’t need to be shared to everyone. Like, it feels like there’s a lot of internal processes per each team.
132 00:15:31.720 ⇒ 00:15:37.650 Sheshu Chandrasekar: And it just happens to be, like, they just dumped it on this homepage. So I think what I’m planning on doing is kind of separating those two.
133 00:15:37.780 ⇒ 00:15:52.659 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Because, like you said, right, when a new member comes on, like, we want to make sure that, you know, it doesn’t feel like it’s super overwhelming, right? Yeah. It’s very straightforward to get what they need. So, I’m kind of working together something there. I…
134 00:15:52.660 ⇒ 00:16:10.660 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Bria, now that you told me that Eliza’s also working on something, I think it’d be very useful for me to connect with her at some point today or tomorrow, and see what she was thinking about, and then work from there. But I’ll put together something in the next hour or two. I’ve been working on it, so we can talk about it in the operations meeting a little bit, today.
135 00:16:11.300 ⇒ 00:16:16.499 Rico Rejoso: Okay, and if that’s the case, I’ll probably have you lead that one, and I can, like, you know.
136 00:16:16.500 ⇒ 00:16:41.240 Rico Rejoso: But then just to, provide more information regarding to a test that I’m working on. Because right now, I’m just working on the execute, executing some of the tasks that we have here in, the Gantt chart. And to be honest, since I’m working in cross-department from sales to operations, I don’t have much context on, what we plan for the, I mean, what we’re planning on for this week, and what to discuss.
137 00:16:41.240 ⇒ 00:16:49.230 Rico Rejoso: I guess, since Eliza’s the one coming up with the, structure and, managing, the operations side.
138 00:16:51.090 ⇒ 00:17:02.569 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, no, totally makes sense. Also, is there any meetings that Eliza was on that kind of discusses this? Because I can just go through the platform and just read the transcript, so I can get a better idea of what she’s thinking.
139 00:17:03.640 ⇒ 00:17:10.260 Rico Rejoso: I don’t think so, yeah. Last time we discussed this one was during our Opsync.
140 00:17:10.420 ⇒ 00:17:11.569 Rico Rejoso: I think last week.
141 00:17:13.490 ⇒ 00:17:21.140 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay, I’ll… I’ll do some digging, but if not, like, I’ll just… just stick to the plan of what I have right now, and then we’ll figure it out from there.
142 00:17:21.790 ⇒ 00:17:32.459 Rico Rejoso: Okay, yeah, so, yeah. And… other than that, she’s the one also looking into this. We just got access for Donut Up from, Lauren.
143 00:17:32.730 ⇒ 00:17:34.619 Rico Rejoso: And a buddy program.
144 00:17:36.980 ⇒ 00:17:53.280 Rico Rejoso: This one, I’m working on this one, so yeah, I’ll also… I mean, I provided updates on this one, on the operations channel. You can go ahead, check it out, and let me know if those documents work. If not, just let me know, and I can forward those documents and links to you.
145 00:17:53.730 ⇒ 00:17:54.780 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
146 00:17:55.430 ⇒ 00:17:57.769 Sheshu Chandrasekar: The, for the recruitment process?
147 00:17:58.230 ⇒ 00:17:58.620 Rico Rejoso: Yeah.
148 00:17:58.620 ⇒ 00:17:59.220 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay.
149 00:17:59.400 ⇒ 00:18:14.219 Rico Rejoso: I mean, I submitted a few documents for review for the team. I didn’t get any updates or feedbacks yet from them, but if in case there should be any changes, let me know and I can work on it. If not, I can proceed to working on some of this stuff here.
150 00:18:16.360 ⇒ 00:18:20.289 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, no, sounds good. I’ll take a look at it later today or tomorrow.
151 00:18:20.420 ⇒ 00:18:22.969 Sheshu Chandrasekar: I have more time tomorrow than I have today.
152 00:18:22.970 ⇒ 00:18:30.969 Rico Rejoso: No, no worries, yeah, definitely, yeah, take your time. Yeah, I think that’s just, this is, I mean, that’s just it, I guess.
153 00:18:31.160 ⇒ 00:18:43.199 Rico Rejoso: Not sure what your… I mean, I did take a view of your 30-60 days, so I’m not sure if… what’s your main focus is right now on working on-site from Notion Revamp, which is probably a main project.
154 00:18:43.200 ⇒ 00:18:44.750 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, I think…
155 00:18:44.750 ⇒ 00:18:45.400 Rico Rejoso: What’s her.
156 00:18:46.160 ⇒ 00:18:46.880 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah.
157 00:18:47.030 ⇒ 00:18:53.500 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Great question. I think, biggest priority for the next two weeks would be to figure out Notion.
158 00:18:55.500 ⇒ 00:19:01.380 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Just because it seems like, you know, Utam and Robert, I think they’re in the recruiting process right now.
159 00:19:01.620 ⇒ 00:19:16.540 Sheshu Chandrasekar: So, I think Notion’s, like, kind of the foundational piece, right? Yeah. In order for us to onboard more people, we need to have sustainability of making sure that onboarding experience is good. So, Notion is definitely a priority number one right now.
160 00:19:16.670 ⇒ 00:19:25.090 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Priority number two for me would be creating the Slack bot, where we get that ad hoc request, where anyone can type in, like.
161 00:19:25.310 ⇒ 00:19:39.930 Sheshu Chandrasekar: backslash operations, and then a form pulls up. They fill out certain details, and then it gets to our linear, dashboard, where we kind of sort through and figure out what makes sense. So that’s, like, the two biggest priorities I’m looking.
162 00:19:39.980 ⇒ 00:19:53.739 Sheshu Chandrasekar: And then, after I’m done reading the recruitment documents, I know that’s also a parallel initiative that I need to work on, so I don’t have too many thoughts right now, but let me read through it and figure out what exactly we need to do on that end, because
163 00:19:54.310 ⇒ 00:20:06.879 Sheshu Chandrasekar: That’s also a very important piece to our 30-60-90 plan, so let me check that out, but I have one question for you. So, are you… are you the person that kind of deals with the day-to-day recruiting, or is that Eliza?
164 00:20:07.750 ⇒ 00:20:09.789 Rico Rejoso: I… I am right now.
165 00:20:10.800 ⇒ 00:20:11.990 Rico Rejoso: You are okay.
166 00:20:11.990 ⇒ 00:20:12.520 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay, perfect.
167 00:20:14.100 ⇒ 00:20:15.920 Rico Rejoso: And that’s one thing also.
168 00:20:15.920 ⇒ 00:20:17.289 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sorry, yeah, you were trying to say something?
169 00:20:17.290 ⇒ 00:20:22.749 Rico Rejoso: I mean, we got, like, a different process in, recruitment, wherein we have, like, different
170 00:20:22.800 ⇒ 00:20:26.530 Rico Rejoso: intakes. Like, we do get,
171 00:20:26.530 ⇒ 00:20:33.300 Rico Rejoso: I mean, candidates from different, from campaigns, like, what Ryan is spearheading on.
172 00:20:33.300 ⇒ 00:20:50.080 Rico Rejoso: like, he’s the one, creating the campaign for recruitment, and I’ll be thinking, like… I mean, I’ll be working after, he ran through that campaign, so that’s one thing that we’re finalizing on the recruitment side. Other than that, I guess it’s just basically with,
173 00:20:50.120 ⇒ 00:20:55.840 Rico Rejoso: Directing points on what should be the next process for a candidate.
174 00:20:58.180 ⇒ 00:21:14.709 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Gotcha. Okay, so, yeah, let me read through the documents, because I think, Rico, that’s a very important piece as well. Tom and Robert were stressing out. So, we’ll… we’ll figure something out. Let me… let me read through your docs right now, or today or tomorrow, and then let’s reconvene at some point.
175 00:21:14.800 ⇒ 00:21:22.420 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Tomorrow, and then we could discuss, like, what would be, like, some high-impact stuff we can do right away, and get that going as well.
176 00:21:22.620 ⇒ 00:21:26.849 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, happy to share my points once you got a first review on those socks.
177 00:21:26.850 ⇒ 00:21:30.400 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, absolutely. Okay. Perfect.
178 00:21:30.400 ⇒ 00:21:31.060 Rico Rejoso: Alright.
179 00:21:31.180 ⇒ 00:21:33.110 Rico Rejoso: Yep, I guess that’s it.
180 00:21:33.110 ⇒ 00:21:37.469 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Is there anything else top of mind, like… No, sorry, go ahead.
181 00:21:38.610 ⇒ 00:21:52.819 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, not at all right now. I think I’m just stressed out on what’s going to be discussed later on, the ops and finance meeting, since Eliza didn’t share or hand off any agenda for those two meetings that we have.
182 00:21:54.980 ⇒ 00:21:56.800 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, that is a bit of a…
183 00:21:57.110 ⇒ 00:22:00.089 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Does Utam and Robert know that Eliza’s out?
184 00:22:01.000 ⇒ 00:22:08.729 Rico Rejoso: I think so. She did mention that she informed Utham that she’s having a technical issue.
185 00:22:09.350 ⇒ 00:22:10.770 Rico Rejoso: But yeah, I did…
186 00:22:10.770 ⇒ 00:22:11.370 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay.
187 00:22:11.370 ⇒ 00:22:14.500 Rico Rejoso: earlier and ask for those documents.
188 00:22:15.260 ⇒ 00:22:16.530 Rico Rejoso: Or those agendas?
189 00:22:16.530 ⇒ 00:22:17.910 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay, if not
190 00:22:18.070 ⇒ 00:22:26.239 Sheshu Chandrasekar: I think they’ll understand, and we can just push to tomorrow. I’ll talk to you, Tom. If not, just let me know what Eliza says to you, and I can… I could do something. Sure, yeah.
191 00:22:26.240 ⇒ 00:22:26.760 Rico Rejoso: Let you know.
192 00:22:26.760 ⇒ 00:22:39.470 Sheshu Chandrasekar: let’s just, yeah, let’s focus on the notion, because that’s very important. I understand that finance is a critical piece, but if not, and they really want to work on the finance, then we can definitely move it to tomorrow. I think that’s…
193 00:22:40.640 ⇒ 00:22:45.820 Sheshu Chandrasekar: something we may have to do, but hopefully Eliza comes up online, so we’ll see.
194 00:22:46.800 ⇒ 00:23:03.530 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, definitely. Alright, so yeah, if nothing else, I guess we’re good. I did provide you access to what I have right now and everything. If not, let me know, so I can help you out. So I’ll probably be working cross-department from operations to sales, so yeah, let me know. And also.
195 00:23:03.530 ⇒ 00:23:05.439 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, what’s your priority?
196 00:23:07.190 ⇒ 00:23:08.660 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, absolutely.
197 00:23:09.130 ⇒ 00:23:15.070 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sounds good. And what’s… what’s something top of mind right now? Like, what’s… what are you working on today and tomorrow?
198 00:23:16.020 ⇒ 00:23:26.000 Rico Rejoso: I’m working on finalizing the recruitment. I want to close this out, because I think if we close this out, we’ll manage to move on in some of the Notion revamp stuff.
199 00:23:26.120 ⇒ 00:23:27.470 Rico Rejoso: But, yeah.
200 00:23:28.250 ⇒ 00:23:29.949 Rico Rejoso: And the legal contract as well.
201 00:23:29.950 ⇒ 00:23:30.530 Sheshu Chandrasekar: So you’re…
202 00:23:30.840 ⇒ 00:23:31.949 Rico Rejoso: On top of my head.
203 00:23:32.160 ⇒ 00:23:39.419 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Wait, so if we go to the Gantt chart real quick, to the recruitment process, can you just point me out which one you’re working to?
204 00:23:40.400 ⇒ 00:23:45.370 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, this one, the metadata, and the cleaning up the swim lanes.
205 00:23:47.840 ⇒ 00:23:53.000 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sorry, you’re looking at row 66 and 67, those are the two things you’re working on right now?
206 00:23:53.610 ⇒ 00:24:05.199 Rico Rejoso: Yep, this one, and 58 and 67. I’ve started on both of this, working to finalize this within the day, and at the same time, at Notion.
207 00:24:05.510 ⇒ 00:24:06.379 Rico Rejoso: This one, no.
208 00:24:08.830 ⇒ 00:24:13.869 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Okay, no, sounds good to me. Just let me know progress on that.
209 00:24:14.390 ⇒ 00:24:21.800 Rico Rejoso: Yeah. So I wanted to close out most of the stuff here within this week, so I’ll probably update on this one, and add this one to linear.
210 00:24:24.040 ⇒ 00:24:25.449 Rico Rejoso: Okay, perfect.
211 00:24:25.790 ⇒ 00:24:32.800 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Thanks. That’s very useful for me, because I can incorporate that into the deck I’m building out today, so we can share with the ops team, ops meeting.
212 00:24:33.710 ⇒ 00:24:43.279 Rico Rejoso: Oh, by the way, we do have, like, if you go to, if you’re creating a deck, for our meeting later, we do have the, template for decks.
213 00:24:43.800 ⇒ 00:24:45.400 Rico Rejoso: In the platform.
214 00:24:45.400 ⇒ 00:24:46.339 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Oh, okay.
215 00:24:47.780 ⇒ 00:24:50.429 Rico Rejoso: You just go to the marketing assets.
216 00:24:59.050 ⇒ 00:24:59.740 Rico Rejoso: Yay.
217 00:25:00.120 ⇒ 00:25:01.430 Rico Rejoso: It’s taken some time.
218 00:25:02.180 ⇒ 00:25:10.470 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, and if you go to deck, I think we have… This one.
219 00:25:11.500 ⇒ 00:25:18.379 Rico Rejoso: Google Slides Deck Template. So you could just copy this one and paste it on our… put it in your folder.
220 00:25:18.650 ⇒ 00:25:20.250 Rico Rejoso: Let’s create a copy of this.
221 00:25:22.690 ⇒ 00:25:25.019 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Oh, perfect. I will take a look at this.
222 00:25:25.850 ⇒ 00:25:28.440 Rico Rejoso: Alrighty, I can send this one to you as well.
223 00:25:30.650 ⇒ 00:25:31.180 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Sweet.
224 00:25:31.180 ⇒ 00:25:31.770 Rico Rejoso: Right.
225 00:25:31.930 ⇒ 00:25:36.240 Rico Rejoso: That’s all it, I guess. If you’re… if you don’t have any questions, I think I’m good.
226 00:25:38.270 ⇒ 00:25:41.660 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, I think I’m good. If anything, I’ll just… I’ll just ping you on Slack.
227 00:25:42.630 ⇒ 00:25:44.689 Rico Rejoso: Alrighty, thank you so much for your time, Shashri.
228 00:25:46.010 ⇒ 00:25:47.569 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Yeah, thanks, Rico. Talk to you soon.
229 00:25:47.570 ⇒ 00:25:48.190 Rico Rejoso: Alright.
230 00:25:48.670 ⇒ 00:25:49.350 Sheshu Chandrasekar: Bye.
