Rick Kelo’s Summary

I recruit for MRINetwork; the largest recruiting firm in the world. Specifically, I work in the #4 office globally out of over 1,300.

I oversee the Accounting and Finance practice for our firm, although I individually work primarily in Tax.

The second link above is my YouTube site, where I post a 90 second video discussing each new search we begin working. The "RSS feed" link will send you a two sentence summary as I add new video job postings to YouTube. Only takes a couple minutes a month to stay connected to the tax job market. Your career is worth 30 minutes a year!
