Margo Kornfeld is the REAL MVP!

It was such a pleasure working with Patrice & Associates in my recent job search. From the moment I spoke with Margo Kornfeld, I knew I was in trusted hands. She really took the time to learn about my background and experience, as well as what I was wanting out of my next career move, ensuring that I was the right match for the position she had in mind. The hiring process was handled with professionalism and care from start to finish. I would highly recommend working with Patrice & Associates.

I highly recommend Margo Kornfeld! 

Margo helped me secure an amazing job with one of the leading global companies in the hospitality sector!  Her guidance, support, and expertise were instrumental in helping me navigate the job search process and ultimately land an incredible position that aligns perfectly with my career goals. From our initial consultation to polishing my resume, preparing for interviews, and negotiating salary, Margo was there every step of the way.  Her personalized approach and genuine interest in my success made all the difference. Thanks to Margo, I not only secured a job but also gained valuable insights and skills that will benefit me throughout my career.  I am grateful for Margo’s help and highly recommend her to anyone seeking career guidance in the hospitality industry or beyond.

Sincerely,

Cory 

I had an excellent experience working with Margo Kornfeld.

She was a great coach who helped me focus on my most relevant experience and answer potential questions. Her walkthrough gave me excellent insights and tips to improve my interviewing skills. She was a great help throughout the process, even after I accepted the position. I would highly recommend her.       Thank you, Brendan

I just want to say a huge “Thank You!!” to Margo Kornfeld for all she has done.

I just would like to say that Margo Kornfeld was instrumental in landing my dream job. I did not know what to expect at all. My thoughts were that she is a regular recruiter trying to meet her quota. But was I wrong. She is not. As a matter of fact she will bat for you 300%. That is what she did for me. She gave me the scope regarding information for the interview and what they are looking for. She provided the confidence and belief that this opportunity is for me and how to wow them. And I did! If you are looking for that perfect opportunity, I would recommend Margo Kornfeld. She definitely has you covered.                       Reginald W. Zephyrin

I had a wonderful experience working with Margo Kornfeld. 

I had been at my previous employer for 10 years and was ready to make a change.  I was really struggling with what my new role and career path should be, but after my initial conversation with Margo she knew exactly my path before I really saw it!  Margo was great, she coached me through the entire process with check-in's along the way.  She provided advice that was in my best interest, not necessarily the position she was looking to fill.  However, she knew I was the right fit for the position and her encouragement went a long way.  I'm glad she followed her gut and lead me to a great new career/role.
Much Love,
Kimberly Lockett
