“You Snooze You Lose” means more now than ever!
October 2, 2018
In this tight labor market companies have to move fast if they want the best talent available. The unemployment rate, combined with the ever growing restaurant industry, has employers clambering to compete for top producers. Employers are making hiring decisions faster than ever. We have one client who does a phone interview, then a second interview the following Thursday and an offer is made on the spot if the candidate is qualified. Some clients are making fast offers pending background check vs making a candidate wait for the offer until the background is completed. A recently published study shows: Almost…

I had been searching for a restaurant management opportunity for about 4 weeks and had very little luck. I couldn't seem to find the "right" position or find the "right"person to help me. Then I came across the ad from Patrice and Associates recruiting for a kitchen manager for one of their clients. So I completed another application, submitted my resume and waited.
I want to start by saying this journey for me was truly a life changing move, and I had met and interviewed with 6-7 different
recruiters. I immediately clicked with Margo in our phone interview. She asked all the right questions professionally and personally to really find the perfect fit for my first job in the city. Due to her hard work, I was able to take a leadership role instead of having to take a few steps back.
Every interview she called no matter time, day, or night to ensure I was
prepared. We talked almost every day to keep each other in the loop. I
personally have never experienced such diligence, and expertise when it
comes to recruitment. I truly thank your agency, and Margo for finding me my
perfect fit in the city. Margo is one of a kind, and if I ever need a job
she will be the ONLY recruiter I use to place me. Thank you again, your
agency is the best!

“I want to thank Jillian Parker for reaching out to me with this amazing opportunity.
I honestly think this was a perfect fit. I’ll be passing her info on to anyone who is looking for a management position.
When Jillian reached out to me for a new manager position, it was like the window of opportunity flew open with hurricane force. I explained to her that I was being very picky about my next career move. She put me at ease, she put all the cards on the table, had immediate answers for my questions, and even did more research to help me make a decision. She knocked out any obstacles before the came and even gave me interview tips for every step. Her communication was impeccable and her guidance was even more so. Jillian made sure that I was taken care of monetarily by getting a nice increase with the transition. After two weeks at my new job I realize that this was a perfect fit and I owe it all to her. I want to thank her again for all that she’s done and I couldn’t be happier with my new career.”

“Chris is hands down one of the best recruiters I have worked with in my job searches. He is genuinely enthusiastic and highly motivated in finding that "perfect" match. Not only does he create a meaningful relationship with his candidates, but it is that same gusto that keeps him well connected to all his clients and opens up an abundance of possible placement opportunities. He is honest, dependable, and always reachable. I am absolutely certain Chris will get you where you want to be!”
Best of luck to Chris at Patrice & Associates!

Fajar is amazingly professional, kind, and very easy to talk to. She was always just an phone call text or email away. She responded extremely fast to every question I've asked her even if I emailed her after 5 pm. She anticipated my needs as an applicant.
Fajar gave me so much vital information that prepared me for my interviews. Honestly I wouldn’t have thought to research in such depth on my own. She kept me motivated whenever I doubted myself. She is just a great person around the board and I know the sky is the limit for her because she is genuinely cares
