**Pro Tips for Best Results**
- Greater specificity about weaknesses, existing relationships, and long-term goals produces dramatically better matches.
- Mention any previous failed recruitment attempts or current rivals — these are valuable signals for Elyndor.
- Request focused follow-ups on any single candidate ("Give me three distinct pitch approaches for candidate #2, including one that leans into their pride and one that appeals to their ancient loneliness").
