Our Team

At RNG, we're a women-owned and women-led business dedicated to helping companies in the Northwest (and beyond) find exceptional talent that drives real results.

Founded by Jessica Cafferty in 2015, RNG has built a reputation for personalized recruiting solutions across Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Oregon.

Our Core Beliefs

We're rebels with a cause in the recruiting world, challenging industry norms while delivering the human-centered connections that transform businesses and careers throughout the Northwest.

Real Connections Win

We believe that even in this AI-obsessed world, nothing beats the genuine, human-to-human approach that uncovers perfect-fit talent you'd never find otherwise.

Talent Beyond Paper

We believe the magic happens when we dig deeper than credentials and discover what makes exceptional humans tick in their work environment.

Growth Through Partnership

We believe recruitment isn't a transaction but a collaboration that helps companies evolve, candidates thrive, and creates lasting impact beyond just filling positions.

Your Culture, Our Obsession

We believe your company's unique personality and challenges deserve a recruiting approach as individual as your team. Not some tired, one-size-fits-nobody template.

The Talent Behind the Talent

These are the humans who'll move mountains to connect you with exceptional candidates. No corporate recruiter robots here—just radiant personalities who get freakishly excited about finding your perfect match and building the relationships that transform Northwestern businesses.

Jessica Cafferty

Founder & President, RNG

Third-generation Idahoan Jessica Cafferty founded RNG in 2015 after experiencing the "job search blues" firsthand. With a background in business development at logistics companies and a University of Puget Sound degree in Business Leadership, Jessica built RNG to bridge technology and humanity in recruiting.

She's the scrappy visionary behind $4M+ in salaries placed throughout the Northwest. When not revolutionizing recruitment, Jessica serves on multiple boards including Girl Scouts of Silver Sage and Boise Young Professionals, hits the foothills with office pup Arlo, or travels the world.

Zoe Shealy

Sr. Recruiter, RNG

Zoe brings her relationship-building superpowers to RNG as a Senior Recruiter with a freaking awesome talent for making candidates feel heard. Nearly a Boise native (moved here at age 2), she graduated from Boise High before earning her City Planning degree from Northern Arizona University.

The Northwest pulled her back — and now she's putting her people-connecting magic to work delivering exceptional talent matches. Beyond RNG, Zoe co-owns Neckar Coffee (opened 2018) with her husband and spends her free time outdoors, devouring books, and being present with her family — including her 2-year-old daughter.

Hailey Huston

Director of Operations, RNG

Hailey joined RNG in 2021 as Director of Operations, bringing her communication expertise (University of Montana grad) and people-first mindset to our scrappy team. Originally from Missoula, MT, she's found her perfect home in another "River Runs Through It" town.

As a solid 10/10 on the people-person scale, Hailey orchestrates RNG's personalized recruitment process while championing our relationship-first approach. When not keeping operations running smoothly, you'll find her with nose buried in a book or spending quality time with her husband and son.
