In this episode of Talentless, Ashley King and Desiree Goldey take on the recruiting unicorns of the talent world those hyper-specific, nearly mythical roles we lovingly (and sometimes begrudgingly) call purple squirrels.
From wild job descriptions to impossible expectations, they unpack what makes these roles so hard to fill and why companies keep writing them. This episode dives into the tension between business needs and hiring realities, and the creative (and sometimes chaotic) ways recruiters rise to the challenge.
If you’ve ever chased a needle in a haystack or been expected to be one this one hits close to home.
This episode is part vent session, part strategy huddle, and 100% recruiter realness.
