No matter how experienced an HR professional, there is always a time when you need to do a reality check on your HR Staffing environment. Riviera Advisors enabled Availability Services to gather that information. Further that information was key to establishing a plan to enable “Staffing & Selection” to become an even better partner to our Hiring Managers. Most importantly, they shared our sense of urgency to keep the project on task. Their sense of urgency has been there throughout the process. I told them “You’ve been my HR Life Raft”.

We utilized Jeremy Eskenazi to evaluate and restructure our corporate staffing function and processes. Jeremy is not only a successful business partner, but a successful business “player” as well. By this I mean he delves into the issues with the organization and makes our challenges, his challenges. In addition, he creatively and strategically analyzes the gaps, using theory and practical processes which results in useful staffing tools and very real applications.

Never in our experience of working with consultants, have we worked with anyone as quick and competent as Riviera Advisors. Their ability to pick up the fine details of our business was nothing short of miraculous. We would hire them again and again.

Riviera Advisors came in as our project manager on a sizable implementation that required analysis of process, workflows, technology review and the like. They teamed with our business partners and vendors to ensure timely execution. Riviera managed the project and later identified a consultant to step in as interim Senior Director of Talent Acquisition to ensure we didn’t miss a beat. Riviera was instrumental in assisting us with our search to fill the position and would call upon Riviera Advisors again in a heartbeat.
