About Nicholas Ricciardelli

Thirty years in recruiting teaches you things no software can replicate — how to read a candidate, how to earn a hiring manager\'s trust, and how to move fast without cutting corners.My career spans technical and executive recruiting and staffing for some of the most demanding organizations in the country: Nvidia, Bank of America, Intel, and Fortune 500 companies across technology, engineering, and infrastructure.I\'ve placed and staffed everyone from software engineers to C-suite leaders, on both permanent and contract engagements, in markets from Silicon Valley to New York.Today I run recruiting operations at TRS Talent Agency, the firm I co-founded with my son. We built TRS to combine that institutional knowledge with modern sourcing technology, and today that process is faster, more accurate, and more personal than anything a traditional recruiting firm can offer.If you need to hire right? Let’s talk.
