Person hunting for a certain gift? (6,5)
I believe the answer is:
talent scout
'person' is the definition.
(talent scout is a kind of person)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for talent scout that I've seen before include "Discoverer of stars" , "One searching for skilled youngsters" , "I seek promise" , "One looking for good performers" , "Recruiting agent" .)
