“Shannon is one of the most intuitive, personable, and creative search specialists I've ever encountered. Shannon sold me on her company in 20 minutes flat, had positions lined up for me, won me over with her honesty and charm, and is now a valued friend as well as a key part of my professional network.

I'll look forward to working with Shannon again, and I'd trust her to find the best people for me to work with.”

None of a Kind. The Fallacy of the Purple Squirrel.
Medium
Purple Squirrel problems have become synonymous for “we generally have a sourcing problem that we don’t understand”, a CEO’s excuse for failure to recruit candidates that are 1) hard to identify (we just need someone super duper smart who can code super duper fast), 2) hard to engage (because they can’t relate to a problem set), and 3) hard to lure away from their current purple squirrel gig (the devil they know).
