Purple squirrel is a term used by employment recruiters to describe a job candidate with precisely the right education, set of experience, and range of qualifications that perfectly fits a job's requirements.

And therefore doesn't exist Grin

(Sorry for bold fail - keep forgetting that you have to put asterisks around the paragraphs as well. Grin)
