Bill is an exceptional asset to your team. He was very hands-on during the recruiting process and made sure I had the necessary tools to succeed.

Kevin W. says that Bill Comerford left him feeling valued and understood!I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding support I received from Patrice & Associates, especially from Bill Comerford. As someone with extensive restaurant management experience, I’ve worked with various recruiting agencies in the past, but none have left me feeling as valued and understood as Bill did.From our very first conversation, Bill took the time to listen to my aspirations and preferences. He genuinely cared about finding an opportunity that not only matched my skills but also aligned with my passion and career goals. I had almost given up on finding a position that offered both the right environment and the compensation I deserved, but Bill proved me wrong.Thanks to his dedication and expertise, I am now excited to join a wonderful restaurant that truly feels like the right fit for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, and I owe it all to Bill’s commitment to his candidates.Thank you, Bill, for your exceptional service and support. I wholeheartedly recommend Patrice & Associates to anyone seeking a fulfilling career opportunity!Warm regards,Kevin W.
