Paraform
Global talent aiding company hires through referral bounties.
About
Paraform is transforming hiring into a fast, flexible marketplace where companies post their toughest roles and connect instantly with specialized recruiters—only paying a bounty when you make a hire. By replacing slow, one‑size‑fits‑all pipelines with a referral‑powered network, Paraform turns months of recruiting into days.
Built around complete transparency and alignment, every recruiter is vetted by peers and driven by clear, outcome‑based bounties. Real‑time dashboards and AI‑assisted matching keep you in control of pipelines and feedback, while fractional engagement models let you scale support up or down without retainers or hidden fees.
Co‑founded in 2022 by John Kim and Jeffrey Li—who first recruited each other and realized the industry was broken—Paraform has grown to a tight-knit 20‑person team, eclipsed eight figures in ARR, and attracted backing from the founders of Canva, YouTube, Instacart, DoorDash, Twitch, and more. Trusted by Scale AI, Ramp, Palantir, Applied Intuition, and other high‑growth startups, Paraform is your go‑to for filling the roles no one else can.
