Our founding story

We're John and Jeff, co-founders of Paraform. Funnily enough, this all started when we tried to recruit each other - and discovered firsthand how broken hiring really is. Ever since then, it’s been our mission to fix it. For good.

How we operate at Paraform:

Image
Raise the Bar

We believe excellence is contagious. The people we are and the work we do inspire each other to do even better. We’re allergic to “good enough.” We go the extra mile, sweat the details, and leave everything better than we found it.

Image
One Team

Our success is deeply interconnected. The same is true of everyone we serve: we only win when our customers, recruiters, and candidates win too. We leave ego and personal incentives at the door, take collective responsibility for outcomes, and do what’s best for Paraform.

Image
Every Day Counts

The world is moving faster than ever - there’s no time for overthinking, indecision, or waiting for perfect conditions. We focus on what matters most and move with a bias to action.

Image
There's Always a Way

Everything worth doing is hard. We choose to be optimistic problem solvers. When something looks impossible, we don’t waste energy explaining why it can’t be done - we roll up our sleeves and figure it out.

Image
"What's Next?"

We’re proud of how far we’ve come, but never satisfied with where we are. When we accomplish something that once felt impossible, we celebrate the win. Then, when we wake up the next morning we ask: “What’s Next?”
