About Vicki Bartelt

Highly experienced in people services for startups, non-profits, and Fortune 200 companies: E-commerce, high tech / telecom / SaaS, financial services, professional services, and health care. I’ve been a corporate HR generalist, staffing industry expert, recruiter, and career transition consultant and recently left the super team of Team Red Dog in the Greater Seattle Area. Ready for more of a support role and work-life balance. People services isn’t just my job, it’s my legacy. I treat every employee and candidate with great care and personalized attention to ensure their success so they can realize their career aspirations. I enjoy lateral growth and continued learning as I climb down the corporate ladder, not up. Having been a staffing company owner in Silicon Valley, statewide leader in California’s staffing industry, and champion of DE & I, I’m committed to HR best practices and a professional code of ethics when I work with you. With an array of HR competencies, both corporate side and staffing industry side, I bolster companies in reinforcing their vision, culture, and brand as great places to work. Being bilingual in English and Spanish and having lived and traveled abroad extensively, I relate well to a multi-generational and culturally diverse workforce and global teams and can help bridge communication gaps.
