Did you know our North American database has over 700,000 exceptional candidates, many with restaurant management and operations experience? We might start there, but recruiters constantly call competitors to find the experienced all-star who will plug in easily with your brand. There’s no posting your job order online and hoping for the best. That’s not part of our recipe for success, but finding, screening, and presenting the top few to you certainly are!

Matt Lopez nailed it!

I am thankful for the service that Matt Lopez provided on behalf of Patrice and Associates in finding me and matching me to an excellent job with an energy company in northern Virginia. Matt Lopez discussed the position and the company and advised me on the hiring process. Matt has the intuition to assess me the job candidate, and the employer regarding my personality and the corporate culture to make the match. Matt found a Company that has all the attributes that I have struggled over the past few years to find. I intend to do an excellent job for the Company that I am joining in October 2022. I plan to achieve my immediate objectives, the company’s goals and show that Patrice and Associated backed the right person for the job.                    

Sincerely,
