Recruiter Spotlight: Meet Rashin June Keller

The Keller Group is known for its people-first approach to executive recruiting, and at the heart of that mission is Founder and Director, Rashin June Keller. As one of the leading executive recruiters in Arizona, Rashin has spent over a decade supporting clients, guiding candidates, and elevating careers throughout the Phoenix market and beyond. This recruiter spotlight dives deeper into her career journey, motivations, and impact as she leads a team of dedicated Phoenix-based recruiters.

What Rashin Loves Most About The Keller Group

When asked what she values most about The Keller Group, Rashin doesn’t hesitate: “Hands down, it’s the team.” She highlights the genuine camaraderie that defines the culture, where celebrating wins, supporting one another through challenges, and truly wanting to see each other succeed isn’t just encouraged, but lived out every day. “It’s a culture where people root for each other, and that’s something I value immensely,” said Rashin. That sense of unity, care, and collaboration is what she believes sets The Keller Group apart in the executive recruiting industry.

Career Journey & Impact

Rashin’s path into recruiting is rooted deeply in service. Her professional journey began in non-profit business, where she discovered her passion for helping others. After graduating college in 2010, she moved across the country from Arizona to Pennsylvania without knowing anyone in the area. An executive recruiter helped her secure her very first job, which was an experience she describes as life-changing. Rashin said, “That experience genuinely changed the trajectory of my life - and it sparked something meaningful in me. I wanted to offer that same impact to others.” By 2011, Rashin transitioned into recruiting and never looked back, finding a career perfectly aligned with her purpose: helping people find roles that can transform their lives while guiding clients through key business decisions.

Today, she channels that same impact-driven mindset into her work at The Keller Group, building long-term relationships with clients and candidates throughout the Greater Phoenix Area and across the country, with networks nationwide. “What we do is the perfect blend of everything I care about: helping people find new job opportunities that can change their lives, while serving as a trusted advisor to clients and helping them solve meaningful business challenges,” said Rashin.

Most Meaningful Career Milestones

While Rashin feels proud to have made thousands of placements throughout her career thus far, she doesn’t measure success by numbers. For her, the most meaningful moments are what she calls “the collective impact, which are the phone calls that change someone’s life.”

Whether it’s helping a mother return to the workforce after raising children, supporting someone reentering their career after illness, or giving a new graduate confidence to take their first step into the “real world,” Rashin finds purpose in the cumulative impact of each story. She went on to say, “For me, it’s not just one placement, it’s the culmination of all the lives I’ve had the privilege to influence.” It’s this human-centered approach that has shaped her reputation as one of the most trusted executive recruiters in Arizona.

Words of Wisdom

What Motivates Rashin Every Day

Rashin’s most powerful motivation every day is her family. She loves sharing her work with her children, hearing their questions, and seeing them grow to understand the impact of helping others. She wants them to witness firsthand what it looks like to work with purpose and integrity. Rashin added, “I want them to be proud of me and to see what it looks like to show up with purpose.”

Her second source of motivation is her team. She shows up every day for them in the same way she asks them to show up for clients, candidates, and each other. That mutual commitment fuels the culture and pillars of excellence at The Keller Group.

The Advice She’d Give Her Younger Self

If she could go back, Rashin would tell her younger self to “find a mentor early - a veteran recruiter who is experienced, wise, and willing to guide her through the complexities of the recruiting industry. “There is so much to learn in this industry, and having guidance early on would’ve accelerated my growth,” said Rashin.

She also believes deeply in the power of building authentic connections that last. In her view, nothing replaces genuine relationships, networking via community involvement, and consistent engagement with the people and specialties you serve. Rashin said, “In executive recruiting, the strength of your relationships is the foundation of your career.”

Top Tips for Candidates and Clients

Rashin offers one piece of strategic advice for hiring leaders: “trust your instincts and move decisively when you meet a strong candidate.” She emphasizes that excessive comparison interviews often slow down the process and can cause organizations to lose top-tier talent with in-demand transferable skills. In today’s competitive Phoenix hiring market, timely decisions matter. Momentum matters. And candidates feel it when a company is confident about them. Her message is crystal clear: “Time kills all deals.”

Fun Fact

Outside of recruiting, Rashin has a unique achievement… she holds a black belt in taekwondo. It’s a detail that surprises many and adds to the energy, discipline, and drive she brings to her role every day.
