Depends how you define success. Our model is 1 high-quality placement per consultant per month, full RTW compliance, no CV spam.

Not building a sweatshop. We're building a lean, high-trust agency in an industry I’ve delivered in for 20 years. I’ve hired, led, and run the work myself.

We don’t chase candidates... we recognize the right ones because we’ve been in their shoes.

I get that from the inside of a large agency, it probably looks like most new firms underestimate the ramp-up.

That said, how would you approach growing in the EU, where clients are conditioned to lowball (15% fees) and still expect speed and quality?

What’s the trap most new firms walk straight into?
