What It’s Like To Work With Rikka

Consulting, advisory and customized training.

Training & Consulting

I first met Rikka while attending one of her hiring and recruiting training classes, which has completely transformed the way we approach hiring as a whole at our company. We have moved from sitting back and waiting for people to apply to our job ads, to a direct recruiting approach.

Advisory

She helped me build a team of five outside partners to launch this new initiative. She became my right-hand man for this effort — she stepped into project management, she introduced me to people in the industry I couldn’t reach.

Consulting

Knowing we were dealing with somebody who was going to look after our best interests really felt like a partnership. In our weekly meetings while searching for a position, she wanted to understand our culture and what our value propositions were — and we’re proud of our culture, so it was really refreshing that she cared enough to want to know who we are.

Kevin MahaffyPresident, Medallion Industries

Consulting

Brought Rikka in as a consultant to help a manager who was struggling to evolve into a leader.

Rikka is so good at delivering a difficult message. She does it in a way that does not sting. She doesn’t hold back, but it’s always delivered with kindness and compassion.
