EARLY-STAGE PROJECT · SANDBOX CHECKOUT ONLY

Terms of service

Last updated November 5, 2026.

Impossible Hires is operated by Nikema Prophet, an individual, under the Impossible Hires name. In these terms, “we” and “us” refer to Nikema Prophet. Questions or concerns can be sent to hello@impossiblehires.com.

Impossible Hires is in development. The interest forms register interest for private founder follow-up. Private profile sharing is offered individually and requires the person’s approval of the exact profile, recipient and opportunity. Employer checkout is currently a sandbox demonstration; it does not collect real money or start a paid engagement. The employer-pilot terms below describe the planned offer; live purchases are not yet open.

Using the website and demonstrations

These terms describe permitted use of this website and its demonstrations. Please use the site only if you can comply with them. Fictional profiles, companies, opportunities and introductions are examples, not available candidates, verified employers or active job offers.

Submitting an interest form sends your details privately to Nikema for founder follow-up. It does not create an account, publish a profile, guarantee a match, or authorize sharing or contact exchange. Copying or downloading your answers does not submit them. The fictional profile editor and introduction demonstrations keep entries in page memory. Use invented details in demonstrations, and do not enter confidential material or information about another person without permission.

Talent participation and sharing permission

Talent participation is free. Employers cannot buy access to candidate profiles or contact details. Payment does not replace employer review, a participant’s permission, or any other participation requirement.

Any future private disclosure will require separate approval of the profile version, named recipient and opportunity. Exchanging contact details requires separate permission. An employer purchase, interest submission or acceptance of these terms is not that permission.

Sandbox accounts and test purchases

The employer-pilot demonstration uses tiun for email sign-in and hosted test checkout. A tiun account is separate from founder-dashboard access. Use an email account you control, keep sign-in codes private, and use test payment details rather than a real card for the rehearsal.

The displayed USD $1,500 price is a sandbox test of a proposed six-week, one-role pilot. A successful test purchase confirms only the assigned fictional pilot’s payment status. It does not approve a real employer, grant candidate access, schedule kickoff, or create a live service contract. The same account cannot purchase the same pilot reference twice.

tiun’s checkout and account services are subject to the terms and notices tiun presents. For live transactions, tiun describes itself as the merchant of record and processes payments, applicable taxes, receipts and refunds. Impossible Hires would remain responsible for the agreed pilot services. No real payment is due through the current sandbox.

Employer-pilot offer — live checkout is not yet open

The planned employer pilot costs USD $1,500 for one active role and six weeks of service. It is a one-time fee, with no automatic renewal or success fee. Applicable taxes and the total payable will be shown before a live purchase. Talent participation remains free.

Before accepting payment, Nikema must approve the employer and confirm that the search can reasonably be supported. The employer will receive a written offer identifying the role, agreed scope, kickoff and end date, fee, these service and refund terms, and any specifically agreed changes. The employer must agree to that offer before purchasing. A sandbox purchase is not acceptance of a live engagement.

The pilot includes:

• One review of the employer’s role brief.
• Founder-led search and curation for that role.
• Consent-based introductions when suitable matches exist.
• Weekly progress updates during the service period.
• An end-of-pilot review.

The six weeks begin at the agreed kickoff, not when payment is made. Payment does not by itself schedule kickoff. The employer must provide an accurate role brief, compensation and working conditions, and respond to reasonable requests needed to carry out the search. Any change to the role, service period or scope must be agreed in writing; it does not automatically extend or renew the engagement.

The pilot fee does not include compensation for candidate assignments. Any assignment must have its own agreed scope, time cap, payment and evaluation criteria. A later engagement requires a separate agreement and purchase.

Impossible Hires does not guarantee a particular number of suitable candidates, introductions, interviews, offers or hires. Participants decide whether to proceed with an introduction, and employers and talent make their own hiring or engagement decisions. We remain responsible for providing the agreed services; the absence of a guaranteed outcome does not remove rights or remedies provided by law.

Cancellation and refunds for a paid pilot

To cancel, email hello@impossiblehires.com with enough information to identify the engagement. Do not include payment-card details or sign-in codes. Cancellation takes effect when we receive your request, unless you request a later date.

• Before the agreed kickoff: the pilot fee is fully refundable.
• After kickoff: the unused portion of the six-week service period is refundable, including partial weeks. The refund equals the pilot fee paid multiplied by the proportion of the agreed service period remaining when cancellation takes effect.
• If we end the engagement early: the same full or prorated refund applies at a minimum, without limiting other rights you may have.

Refunds are processed through tiun, with applicable tax adjustments. We will confirm the cancellation and explain the refund calculation. The time for a refund to reach your payment method depends on tiun and your payment provider. There is no separate cancellation penalty under this policy. Any statutory refund or other non-excludable rights remain available. Sandbox purchases involve no real funds to refund.

Private profile access

A private profile is available only to its named, email-verified recipient for the approved opportunity and access period. Do not forward verification links, redistribute the profile or use it for another purpose. Verification links are sent manually by Nikema; keep them private. Viewing or verifying a link does not itself approve sharing or contact exchange.

Contact exchange requires separate agreement from both people. Either can withdraw that permission for future display. The person whose profile is shared or Nikema can revoke profile access; access also expires on the stated date. These controls cannot recall information already viewed or copied. Interest registration, private access and approval do not create a member account or guarantee a match, job or paid engagement.

Responsible participation

• Represent your identity, authority, work and hiring needs accurately.
• Use only material you have the right to share.
• Do not harass, impersonate, discriminate unlawfully or submit misleading offers.
• Do not scrape private information, redistribute approved disclosures, share sign-in credentials or attempt to bypass access controls.
• Describe compensation, working conditions and assessment expectations accurately. Candidate assignments must have an agreed scope, time cap and payment; no unpaid speculative work is implied by participation.

We may restrict access that misuses the service or threatens participants or security. Report a concern or ask us to reconsider a restriction at hello@impossiblehires.com. Restrictions do not remove applicable legal rights or any refund rights in an agreed paid offer.

Your work and information

You retain ownership of your work and content. These terms do not transfer ownership to Impossible Hires or authorize public posting, employer disclosure, marketing use or use to train AI models. The interest form asks for separate permission to store your submission and contact you. Sharing requires separate approval for the exact version, recipient and opportunity. Our privacy notice describes current data handling.

Links to external sites are provided for convenience. Their operators control their services and terms. Do not treat a link or fictional example as our endorsement of a person, employer or offer.

Availability, changes and questions

Development features may change or be unavailable. Keep your own copy of answers and receipts you want to retain. We will update this page as the service changes and show the revision date. Changes to a paid engagement must be addressed through its agreed terms, rather than silently replacing them through a website update. Nothing here excludes rights or obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Contact hello@impossiblehires.com about access, service concerns or proposed engagement terms. Do not send payment-card details or sign-in codes by email.
