What Sets
Us Apart
We are creatives sourcing creatives. We connect top companies with top talent by using our first-hand experience to understand your unique business needs and the challenges of the creative landscape. Most recruiters have never sat in the seats they are filling for even a day, while we live and breathe it. This is our life.
Through decades of working for the world’s best agencies and brands, we have an intimate knowledge of all things creative. Whether a pitch deck, paid ads, social campaign, UX/ UI, photoshoot, branding, or rebrand. We understand how to assess your needs to find the absolute best fit of skills and culture——drawing on our amazing network of vetted creatives to fill the role.
Transparent
pricing
People are often shocked to learn that many recruiting agencies are paid exactly what the creative is paid——essentially doubling the cost for the client. This model leads to an underpaid creative and an over billed client. We take this exorbitant fee and cut it into thirds, passing a third back to the creative, a third to the client, and keeping a third for ourselves. Creating a more equitable model for all. And since we are working creatives, we truly value sharing the wealth with our community.
Incentive
to retain
We’ve done away with the “in perpetuity” model. Instead, we scale down our cut gradually over the duration of the contract. No conversion fee, and no reason to fear keeping a good fit because of an inflated rate. The longer your working relationship continues, the more it benefits both the client and the creative. Like your hire? Keep them! And let us get out of the way.
