Finding the “3-Legged Sheep” in the Talent World 🐑 For the past 24 years, I've dedicated myself to one mission: finding the impossible-to-find talent. This may sound like a quirky phrase, but in our industry, it represents those rare individuals with a mix of unique skills, like the elusive SONiC network engineer with virtualisation & storage experience fluent in Swiss German—or the recruiter who’s truly tech-savvy, bridging product, sales, and marketing while supporting candidates from junior roles to C-level. Why? Because great teams need more than just skill; they need the right people, who fit unique requirements and understand niche technologies. I’m not just a connector; I: Advise founders and hiring teams on realistic, attainable talent strategies. Coach candidates to confidently sell themselves and navigate interviews. Adapt with technology, from placing mainframe engineers in 2000 to AI specialists in 2024. It’s about passion, adaptability, and the relentless pursuit of finding those “3-legged sheep” to help companies innovate and grow. What’s been your biggest challenge in hiring or finding the right fit?

Hiring specialized tech professionals has never been harder. From AI to cybersecurity, the demand for niche skills far outpaces the available talent pool. But here’s the good news: the solutions to these challenges are within reach. What makes it so difficult?  1. Limited Supply Meets High Demand: Specialized skills take years to develop, and the talent pool isn’t growing fast enough.  2. Rapidly Changing Skill Requirements: New tools and frameworks emerge faster than most hiring managers can keep up.  3. Unrealistic Expectations: Waiting for a “unicorn” candidate often leads to months of delays.  4. Intense Competition: Niche talent knows their worth, and companies are in fierce bidding wars.  5. Slow Hiring Processes: Tech professionals don’t wait—speed and efficiency are critical. We’ve broken down these challenges AND how to solve them in detail.
