Episode Synopsis

What do you do when you’ve built a 20-year career connecting the unfindable with the unstoppable?In this episode, Darren Flynn sits down with Kye MacDonald, founder of Sky Recruitment, to unpack two decades of insights on the business of talent—especially when the talent doesn’t even have a LinkedIn profile.From recruitment as relationship-building to the rise of title inflation and why “just doing good work” isn’t enough to win repeat business, Kye dives into the truths most hiring managers won’t say out loud.We talk candidate psychology, culture fit vs. skill set, and how engineering consultancies can (and should) think differently about BD, branding, and developing junior talent.If you’ve ever wondered how to get hired, build your dream team, or just navigate the politics of job titles—this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
