Clint Carpenter's standards of Recruiting are TOP NOTCH!
To begin, Clint Carpenter was the ONLY recruiter I didn't get a generic template e-mail from. He actually took the time to look at my complete resume. In the first few days we spoke, he really took the time in our conversations to get to know what was important to me in a future job as well as what I knew I did not want. He checked in with me every day, whether it was to help coach me for an interview or just follow up if I'd gotten feedback. When I finally did get the offer I wanted, there was a snag and the paperwork with the company was delayed by 2 weeks. It was incredibly frustrating, but Clint called or texted me EVERY single day to encourage me and make sure I was ok as well as doing whatever he could from his end to help facilitate the paperwork. I never felt like I was alone in the job search process. Clint is professional, positive and you can tell he genuinely loves helping people. I would recommend him to anyone!!!!Lethr' Rothert
Dave took the time to get to know ME, who I am, my experience and my goals
Dave Evens has been working with me these past couple months as I transition from a restaurant owner toward a corporate environment. Along with this, I'm relocating from TN to NY. I feel that he was able to capture my unique experience in the updated resume he created for me. Dave was great with communicating options and feedback from all sources. It was a true pleasure to work with him. While we were unable to find a good fit for me, I am blown away by Dave's approach and enthusiasm. I found a great job, on my own, but I do not feel that reflects poorly on Dave nor Patrice & Associates. When, again, I enter my next job search, I will be sure to reach out to Dave first!

I honestly didn't know what to expect from Patrice & Associates. Upon my first time speaking with Mr. Mike Buterbaugh, I was instantly put at ease with his genuine approach to helping me find the best fit for me overall in my next career decision. Not only did he coach me on how to drastically improve my resume, he also had me an interview within a couple of days. I have never had an experience quite like this during a job search, but I would definitely give 5 stars to this company and their recruiting team. I have gained a new career that not only met my salary expectations, but balances with my personal life as well. Thanks again for your help, and although I don't plan to be on a search again, if the need arises, they will definitely be my first point of contact.
Mike Buterbaugh is genuine and caring

I worked with Clint Carpenter on getting a job. Clint did an amazing job helping me with my resume, walking me through the process and giving me help and interview tips. He was in communication with me everyday about what was going on and keeping me in the know. I would call on Clint again if I ever needed him!
Clint Carpenter was wonderful!

Dealing with Patrice & Associates has been a great experience all throughout. Karen Horton was great to work with and played a pivotal role in providing me with multiple opportunities to pursue. She was there every step of the way to make sure everything was going in the right direction. She facilitated communications between me and HR departments as well. I landed a great opportunity in very little time and would definitely recommend Patrice & Associates for anyone looking to pursue new opportunities and build their career!
Karen Horton was there, every step of the way!
Best, S.
She contacted me with multiple, high-quality positions and worked very hard to assist me with framing each of my submissions. Kathy was extremely well-informed about each job requisition, which afforded me great confidence in my interviews. Finally, overall she was extremely helpful in keeping me informed and positive throughout the process. I am exceptionally grateful to Kathy for all that she did for me.
Kathy Helfand was instrumental in my recent job search.

Timothy Walker is the definition a good helping hand!!!
He has a plethora of good qualities and a ton of experience. I will list all the qualities he displayed and 2 examples as to why it was important and how it helped.
Timothy was patient, persistent, ethical, understanding, professional, well-spoken, "firm but fair", understanding, proactive, a good listener, respectful, detailed, thorough, specific, diligent, and didn't make you feel like you're just another number on his spreadsheet.
1st example) He reigned me in early on in a firm but fair way. It was artful, respectful and I'm a better person for it. Look at the results!!! It turned out better than both of us had thought. He advised, I listened then followed through to the letter, combined with who I am and what I'm about vs me just going at it alone like at the outset.... hence him having to be firm but fair.
He's the big bother type you always needed just didn't know was there.
2nd example)
He was ethical to the "T". By nature I have high morals and I am an ethical person and I can spot the opposite in an instant. The way he coached me didn't have a trace of underhanded behavior, negativity, two-facedness or selfishness. He always stated what he did, why he did, what was needed, delivered in writing what he accomplished and on time and a smile in his voice. It put me at ease the entire process.
He's a rare combination, but 100% the real deal.
I've actually already recommended him to a friend because of the above mentioned things. Wish you all the best in your business ventures Tim and even better in life.
Take care,
Dexter A. Peterbark
I recently had the pleasure of working with Liz Costa from an open requisition she was handling. I am extremely glad Liz reached out to me and am fortunate to have met her. Her professionalism and care for the overall talent acquisition experience has been the best I’ve witnessed in 20 years of professional experience. Liz took additional time to review my experience, leadership strengths, opportunities, and provided an in-depth review into what a successful interview looks like. Even after receiving an offer from the company, Liz has continued to check in on me to ensure the onboarding process is smooth and going to plan. I feel as though I have someone in my corner who will look out for my best interest and would be absolutely thrilled to work with her in the future if the opportunity arises.
Everyone needs a Liz Costa in their corner!

I am forever grateful for Hez Butler's help and would recommend his services anytime.
My name is Lillian Coles and I had the opportunity to work Hez Butler. He assisted me with updating my resume and offers of employment matching my goals and experience. He kept in touch through the whole process. Within the first contact he had several prospects lined up to send my resume to. I believe very deeply that the upgrade to my resume and his assistance are the reasons why I can honestly say that "I'm finally reaching my life goal" of managing a restaurant.
Thank you again Mr.Hez for all your help and believing in me,
Lillian Coles
It was a pleasure working with Carol Bullock
She was so helpful with all the interviews that I conducted. We initially spoke back in April and connected. I went to Sanderling Resort for a weekend trip, and she made herself available to me for additional questions regarding the offer. She was available on the weekends as well. She also knew I had some other offers on the table, and we talked candidly about all the pros and cons of each position. The first position did not work out, so I reached out to her to see if she had other opportunities matching my experience and skill set. She found out about an opportunity in the Outer Banks and called me. I am excited about my new venture and owe it to Carol! I would have never known about this opportunity with a great company. I would recommend Carol to anyone in the hospitality industry looking for their next venture.Christy Smith
