I have worked with Rudi Bellinazzo both as an applicant and as a manager recruiting for open positions. I have found Rudi to be professional, knowledgeable, and very experienced in the staffing profession. Rudi is willing to go the extra mile to ensure a placement is a good fit for both the applicant and the hiring organization, and to make the process as smooth as possible. I have the strong sense that Rudi is not only very good at what he does, but personally enjoys helping candidates and organizations find a match. I would have no hesitations in recommending Rudi.

I met Rudi four years ago to discuss ways that we could work together and we have kept in touch. I find his ability to connect with and understand others to be a natural gift for him. His positive attitude, enthusiasm and ability to link people with positions are effective and refreshing. I would recommend Rudi as a business partner without hesitation.

Joacim Trybom

I have used Rudi to fill positions several times and he offers great candidates that are well screened and great fits to our needs. He is the no-sales pitch and no BS kind of recruiter that delivers high quality candidates consistently without a need to additional screening. Overall a great experience and a recruiter we will use again and again.

In the past, I was leery of recruiters. Rudi changed my view. He was personable, funny, professional, honest and timely. He takes the time to know his clients, both the hiring and hiree, and creates the best match for everyone. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Rudi and will definitely use him again in the future. Thanks Rudi

Richard Nixon

I have known Rudi for over 10 years and I recommend him for trust, knowledge and readiness. From both sides of the hiring experience (whether being the hiring manager or candidate) I can trust the confidentiality of the partnership. He stuck by the agreement made between both parties before undergoing the search/hiring process; keep all parties updated and remained flexible due to the possibility changes. It is more about the job fit and hiring experience for Rudi and the financial rewards will come afterwards.

I worked with Rudi as a client when I was corporate controller in private industry. We did four direct hires from him and they were all great candidates. Rudi is very attentive to the candidates that match your requirements and personality. This has made him extremely successful and I would gladly use him again if our firm was looking for any experienced candidates.

Rudi was recruiting for the position that I am currently holding, and he contacted me to see if I was possibly interested at the time. His explanation of both the position and the work environment were both spot on, and I have to say I am extremely pleased with the result, even after two years have passed.

Rudi and his team provided excellent staffing support for the SAP Implementation at ESI. They were able to provide qualified candidates quickly and were able to work with ESI's unique requirements. They also successfully supported us with several contractors with our Finance and Accounting team. They are easy to work with and are highly recommended.

I really value my friendship with Rudi. Four years ago we were introduced. At our first meeting Rudi took the time to get to know me and has consistently looked for good positions that have a long-term future. I cannot think of another recruiter who works as hard as Rudi.
