Read morePatrice & Associates Hospitality Recruiting - you make a difference!Just wanted to express my appreciation for FaLisa and your company for helping me find a great opportunity with Panera Bread. FaLisa was great with making sure we found the perfect fit and not just the perfect salary ! Keep up the great work FaLisa, thanks a lot to you and Patrice & Associates Hospitality Recruiting - you make a difference! Thanks, Brian Salliey
Firstly, I want to let you know my job search was not successful until I started working with my recruiter, FaLisa. Until then, my resume was not getting in right persons hands when I would apply online or in person (I was applying for upper restaurant management). FaLisa was on the ball, answered her phone/emails at all times and I can't thank her enough for getting me interviews that led me to landing a very exciting opportunity! Thanks to FaLisa for her recruitment efforts that changed my life. Thank you, Bailey Kapci
I was so glad I was introduced to FaLisa. She was on point every step of the way and she kept me posted on every bit of the hiring process. She made me feel like I was a VIP. She handled herself very professionally and she had all the answers to my questions. I always felt like she was always working for me 24 7! So if anything comes up in the future and I am looking for a change in jobs I would 100% call back FaLisa! John Heaton
