On March 21st I will be beginning a new job at a fabulous restaurant, all thanks to Patrice & Associates and especially Michael Greig. From the very first time Michael and I spoke, I felt like I was talking to a friend, not a recruiter. Michael was so genuine in his finding out why I was leaving my current position, I trusted him immediately. I am a single mother who was looking for a restaurant that could provide me with more of a work life balance. Michael not only found what I was looking for, but helped me every step of the way. Michael responded to my every text and email. He provided me with interview support, before and after both of my interviews. On one of my interview days the person interviewing me was running late, Michael somehow found out and called me to see how I was doing. Michael’s kindness and encouragement during that call calmed my pre-interview nerves! Now I am only ten days away from starting my new job, and I couldn’t be more excited and any more grateful for Patrice & Associates and Michael Greig!
Beyond grateful for Michael Greig!
Sincerely,
Deirdre Bloesch
I'd like to thank Ana Haynes for her efforts and hard work to get the attention of the decision makers at my new employer. Employers are searching for unicorns to recruit and Ana made sure that I appeared to be such the candidate for the position to get that important face to face interview and subsequent job offer. Contact was maintained throughout the recruitment, onboarding and orientation processes and made the transition that much easier.
Ana Haynes is my HERO!

He helped with any and every question I had through the whole job process. Very hands on & understanding. He didn't just get the job done, but kept up with me after I got the job. I'm so happy I found someone that helped me so much. I owe him so much gratitude for helping me be more than I set out to be. I have a great career now & a great resume to show too! I'll forever recommend him for anyone serious about bettering their work life.
Jonathan Litt was the easiest person to talk to

My name is Lambert Okoro, and would like to give a big praise to Ed Chalkley, who was my recruiter. Ed was with me all the way. He called and walked me step by step, and with his guidance I was able to secure my new job. His professional experience is what I would call impeccable and I want to say a big thank you to him and the entire team.
Ed Chalkley is the MAN!
Thanks and best wishes,
Lambert Okoro
Tony Bucklen has been a great partner throughout the recruiting process. He first scheduled a phone meeting where he asked me about what I was looking for in a job and he also shared with me a great position that I would be a top candidate for. He was able to answer all of my questions regarding the company and the position. He did a great job at communicating throughout the process, even though the company was taking longer to stay in contact with me, he still made sure to check in with me and give me updates. Tony coached me and gave me tips to prepare for interviews. He was also able to advocate for me when I was offered the position. Even after I was hired Tony checked in with me on my first day and of my new job. I am going on week 2 at my new job, and I love the company! Tony made the process seamless and less stressful for us job seekers.
Thank you Tony for your partnership!

Thank you Jodi!

Being in the culinary industry as a chef, I was looking for a new position and happened to get in contact with Mirna. Timing is everything in the hospitality business and her prompt communication was extremely helpful during the search. I was recruited by her as well as she has helped with staffing so I’ve seen it from both sides. Highly recommend. In this challenging labor force climate it helps to know that Mirna understands the hospitality business from an insiders perspective.
Mirna Fisher was AMAZING!

Eric Coultoff is Amazing!

I have been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years and have met and worked with a number of recruiters over those years. Darryl is by far the best recruiter I have ever worked with. He has a level of professionalism that is unmatched. In every interview and every step of the way through my hiring process, I was fully prepared thanks to Darryl. He was available to answer all questions, prepare me for the process and build my confidence during it. I am happy to announce that I have accepted a dream position that would have not been possible without the help of Darryl. The preparation and professionalism as I mentioned is unmatched by any recruiter I’ve ever worked with but the thing that separates Darryl as the best in the industry is his integrity. He genuinely wanted the best position for me as a client and it never felt as if he was trying to sell me a position. He was simply trying to do what was best for my career and my development. I have put him in touch with a number of my peers in this industry because I believe he will always do the right thing and put any person he works with in a position to succeed. Darryl gave me an opportunity to get offered and accept a position that is life changing for myself and my family. I would recommend any manager in our industry, at any level, to work with Darryl.
Darryl is phenomenal as a recruiter, but I also use him as a resource and mentor for my career
