Started in a cramped Vancouver office with too much coffee and a simple idea - recruitment doesn't have to feel like pulling teeth. Fast forward through years of learning what actually works (and plenty of what doesn't), and here we are.
Three recruiters walked away from corporate life because honestly, we were tired of treating people like resume robots. Set up shop in Vancouver with one mission - do this thing differently.
Landed our first major tech client after they'd been burned by two other agencies. Placed their entire leadership team in under 90 days. Word started spreading that we might be onto something.
When everything went remote, we helped 47 companies restructure their teams without losing their culture. Learned a ton about what really matters when you can't grab coffee with your coworkers.
Moved into our current space on West Pender. Team grew to 18 people who all actually like each other (most days). Started focusing heavily on creative industries because that's where the fun is.
We've helped over 200 companies build teams that actually stick around. Still learning, still growing, still refusing to send generic LinkedIn messages at 2am.

Not some corporate poster talk - these are the things we won't compromise on
Every candidate gets a real conversation, not a keyword scan. We've turned down clients who wanted us to just "filter resumes faster." Not our style.
If we don't think we're the right fit for your search, we'll say so. Made some accountants nervous but our clients appreciate it.
Good candidates get snatched up fast. We move quickly without cutting corners. Average time to first interview? 4 days. We're kinda proud of that.
A placement that quits in 6 months is a failure, don't care what the contract says. We're looking for matches that last, not quick commissions.
Skills can be taught, but if someone's gonna hate showing up every day, what's the point? We dig deep into what makes both sides tick.
You'll always know where we're at in the process. No ghosting, no vague updates, no recruiter-speak. Just straight talk about what's happening.
Whether you're hiring or looking for your next move, let's have an actual conversation. No pressure, no pitch - just real talk about what you need.
