Key clients/partners include Microsoft, Xbox, Activision, EA, Ubisoft, Phoenix Labs, and Aritzia. - **Growth Signals**: Launched in September 2024; LinkedIn following grew ~35% in its first year; actively posting new open roles (e.g., Lead Unreal Engineer, Senior Unreal Engineer, Technical Designer) as of late 2025; expanding into clean energy and AI sectors. ## Competitive Advantages - **Founder-operated model**: Clients work directly with the founders (75+ years of combined in-house recruiting experience) — no outsourcing or junior recruiters handling key searches. - **Deep industry expertise**: Founders have worked inside some of the world’s most iconic companies (Microsoft, Xbox, Activision, EA), giving them insider knowledge of culture, hiring processes, and what makes a candidate succeed. - **Relationship-first approach**: Emphasizes long-term partnerships over transactional fills, building trust with both clients and candidates. - **Niche specialization**: Focused on games, tech, and lifestyle/retail — a tight, high-demand vertical where domain expertise is a significant differentiator. ## Strategic Focus - **Current priorities**: Deepening relationships within the games and tech sectors while expanding into clean energy, AI, and e-commerce. Growing a curated network of top-tier talent rather than scaling headcount rapidly. - **Direction for growth**: Remaining a boutique, founder-led agency that prioritizes quality over volume. Investing in technology (e.g., Kubernetes, Python, Terraform, Docker, Unreal Engine, GitLab) to streamline operations and candidate matching. ## Why Work Here - **Culture highlights**: The founders describe their culture as “old school” and “fun,” focused on bringing back the fundamentals of recruiting — integrity, transparency, and genuine human connection. The team is small, tight-knit, and deeply experienced. - **Remote/hybrid/office policy**: Remote-friendly for many roles (Canada/US). Some roles require hybrid presence in Vancouver. The founders are based in Vancouver and work flexibly. - **Notable perks or engineering culture**: As a small agency, employees get direct mentorship from founders with decades of experience at top tech and gaming companies. The work is varied (games, tech, retail, AI) and offers exposure to high-profile clients. The team uses modern tech tools (Kubernetes, Docker, Python, Terraform, Unreal Engine) to support its operations. ## Sources 1. [Create Talent Group Website](https://www.createtalentgroup.com/) 2.
