Why Unicorns Suck
Go Beyond The Sparkle
The "purple unicorn" is a joke among recruiters, often used when a client asks for a candidate that feels impossible to find. This could include everything from an Ivy League Degree to specialty experience that the client is passionate about them having.
We feel that no ask is too much, but we also don't stop with "sparkle" of these unicorn candidates, and insist that not only should they have the magic of some elusive skills, but should also have something more....
​
Fire!
More specifically, passion and drive for your business!
How often do you hire someone you thought was perfect for the role, only to find they are unmotivated and not at all what you thought you were getting? This is why we prefer dragons over unicorns.
Anyone can find you a unicorn, but it takes a dragon hunter to find you a dragon who will bring the treasure home to your business!
Dragon Hunting 101
We're Not "Head" Hunters. We're DRAGON Hunters!
Dragon Hunting isn't easy. Top talent isn't everywhere, and often it takes an aggressive recruiter, willing to text, email, InMail and DM on a weekend!
We work tirelessly hunting the best talent for you, finding you passive candidates who are often employed elsewhere, but who could make a true difference to your business.
​
Beyond just the skills, we evaluate them based on our patented "Dragon Hiring Method", which ensures we're not just getting you a candidate that meets your requirements, but who actually "blows you away" and brings things to the table you didn't even know you wanted!
This is what makes our service stand out; purple dragons are a cut above the rest, loyal and fierce, who stop at nothing to find the gold!
