The name ‘Square Peg,’ came up when mapping out the vision for the business and planning our first website. We had a very clear message that we will only place candidates in the right job, role or company, not trying to fit a Square Peg in a Round Hole. The next day we couldn’t move on from Square Peg. The name stuck and said all we wanted to say! From there, Square Peg Associates was born.
