PSCI: The Fast Five

Rich Walker
This month we shine the spotlight on Rich Walker! In his current position, where he serves as an IT Service Delivery Administrator for Energy Transfer Partners, Rich is responsible for managing and maintaining operational IT infrastructure.

Let's take a moment to learn more about him in this month's Fast Five.

  1. Years and projects worked on at PSCI? I am a newbie, this is my first assignment with PSCI!
  2. Last book read? The last book I read was Rebuilding the Brand by Clyde Fessler - It is about how Clyde Fessler branded the current image at Harley-Davidson. Fessler deconstructs their branding strategy and I found many "personal branding" takeaways.
  3. Favorite weekend hobby? Sometimes I tend to see my gardening as a second job, but I do enjoy spending time in the yard. I also play guitar and have picked up playing violin along the way more recently. I write and am building a digitally controlled model railroad.
  4. If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation, where would you go? I want to take my wife to Ireland. But a Rhine river cruise is also high on the list. Oh, and I want to drive to Alaska!
  5. What separates PSCI from other consulting firms you've worked with? I was highly impressed by the quality of the clientele PSCI represents. I was especially pleased with the level of professionalism which Connor and the entire PSCI staff presented.

PSCI: The Latest

Getting Certified
​While the summer months aren't typically associated with coursework, that's just what one member of our staff has decided to take upon himself. Technical Recruiter, Connor Corsini, is in the process of becoming a Certified Professional Services Recruiter through TechServe Alliance - the Industry's only professional certification covering best practices in the IT and engineering staffing industry.

To obtain his Level I certification, Connor will have to demonstrate a mastery of industry standards. These include, but are not limited to: industry best practices; common terms and definitions; systems and processes; and knowledge of federal laws governing employment practices.

Connor is expected to complete his requirements for this certification by month's end and we wish him the best of luck in doing so!
