Rick is sharp. He has the ability to quickly learn new roles and difficult skillsets and quickly build a pipeline of highly technical candidates. Not only does he consistently perform well as an individual contributor, but he is also the ideal team player who brings the others around him up and is always there to help the ones around him succeed. I'd welcome the opportunity to work with him again.

Sharon Giles, SHRM-CP

Rick is a very dedicated and passionate recruiter. He has been laser focused at finding top tier candidates for a wide range of openings and is a key contributor to the team. His down-to-earth demeanor makes him a joy to be around!
