About

Thirty years of recruiting has left me with thousands of relationships.

I'm Rik. I live in Austin, Texas, and I'm a recruiting professional and a professional musician. I also build with AI, and I built this site that way. On the recruiting side, you deal with me directly. I handle the challenges that come up, and I'm there to support you whether you're hiring someone or looking to be hired. The person you talk to on the first call is the person who runs the search and the person who calls you when it's over.

I have filled more roles than I can count, and I never kept a tally. The people are what stayed with me. I remember what you told me you wanted, and I want to know how it turned out.

This page is about how I work and where I learned it. If you'd rather talk than read, that works for me too.

An invitation

If this is how you'd want to be treated, let's talk.

Tell me about the role you need to fill, or the move you're thinking about. You'll be talking with me, and you'll hear back from me afterward whatever we decide.

Thanks for reading this far.RikRik Avalos, Austin, Texas
