Before working with Erica at Patrice & Associates, I was navigating the job search alone, which can often feel like a shot in the dark when trying to find the right cultural and professional fit. Erica was an incredible partner throughout the entire process. She provided excellent coaching and maintained clear, consistent communication that made me feel supported at every step. She truly opened doors to great opportunities, including my current role, and even handled the application details to ensure a smooth process for me. I am so happy to share that I’ve started my new role and it has completely met my expectations! I’m most excited about growing with a team that values creativity and professional development, and I’m thrilled to contribute to such a passionate environment.
Thank You,
Brandee Griffiths
Brandee Griffiths enjoyed working with Erica Berry!
I work in the dental field and was looking to switch to private practice or a specialized office. I received a message from Erica with an offer to discuss a job opportunity at private office. I expressed concern over a few details I hadn’t had experience with. She quickly relayed that to the employer. She quickly informed me that training was possible for anything I was unfamiliar with. We set up a phone call and discussed the position. She quickly set up an interview for later that week. After I accepted the position, she was a wonderful help on getting things rolling for me. She is amazing and helpful every step of the way. Erica is dedicated to matching people with the right job. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be working in the great office I am now at if it hadn’t been for her. Thank you, Erica!
