I want to let you know what an incredible experience I had working with Patrice & Associates. I worked directly with Liz Costa, and she was nothing short of incredible!
From the beginning it was clear that Liz was well prepared and very invested in me and my career. She helped me every step and her communication throughout the process was deliberate and extremely helpful.
Liz followed up after every call/interview and prepared me for success beforehand with questions and expectations so that I was never blindsided by anything. It truly felt like I had a partner there with me thanks to her insight!
I am very thankful for everything that Liz provided to me during this entire process and I can honestly say that her expertise and thoughtfulness were invaluable in making me the best candidate I could be!
Sincerely,
Chris L.

I can genuinely say that Liz is a true professional in her field and “expert” seems too informal of a term to offer as her talent is unmatched thus far in my career tenure of over 30 years. She assured me that my resume deserved more than what I was even seeking and reminded me to ask for what I needed to further my career. Her diligence was incredible and I was pleasantly surprised when she texted and called me while on her own vacation.
I can’t thank her enough for all she has done.
Sincere regards,

I want to begin by thanking you for taking the time to read this.
As a candidate actively seeking employment, I was fortunate enough to be contacted by Liz Costa regarding a Floor Manager position. From the very first message on LinkedIn, I could sense her genuine desire to help. It wasn’t just another recruiter reaching out. Liz immediately stood out as someone who truly cared. From our very first conversation, she went above and beyond. She offered thoughtful, actionable feedback and guided me through improving my résumé and cover letter. What truly set her apart was her willingness to carve out time from her own schedule to help me prepare for the interview, even rehearsing with me to ensure I felt confident and ready.
In a job market that can feel discouraging and uncertain, Liz was a light of encouragement. She believed in me at a time when belief was hard to come by and that made all the difference. Her kindness, professionalism, and unwavering support turned a daunting process into an empowering journey. Liz is not only respectful and personable, but she’s also incredibly attentive, passionate, and authentic in every interaction.
Thanks to her guidance and encouragement, I’m proud to share that I’ve accepted an offer and will be starting my new role on May 9th. I’ll never forget the moment we celebrated together over the phone. It was a joyful, unforgettable reminder that compassion and dedication can truly change lives.
Liz, from the bottom of my heart thank you. Please never stop doing what you’re doing. You are not just helping people find jobs; you are restoring hope and changing lives. You are a true godsend.
With sincere gratitude,
Edga

I recently had the opportunity to work with Liz Costa during my job search, and I can confidently say she made a lasting impression. We’ve all seen recruiter outreach messages, but from Liz’s very first message, I could tell she was different. That same feeling was reinforced in our initial conversation.
Liz demonstrated a deep understanding of this role—not just the job itself, but also the dynamics of the team, the client I would be working with, and the company’s culture. Her keen insight, attention to detail, and passion for her work were unlike anything I had experienced before with a recruiter.
Throughout the process, I felt that Liz genuinely had my best interests at heart, advocating for me every step of the way. I have no doubt that I would not have landed this role without her guidance and support, and for that, I am extremely grateful.
If you have the opportunity to work with Liz Costa, you will undoubtedly be a stronger candidate because of her expertise and dedication.
Best,
Robert W.
